Altus Group recently celebrated a triumphant return from the 2024 Southern Manufacturing & Electronics exhibition in Farnborough. Building on the success of the previous year, Altus enhanced its exhibition space to feature eight key processes and the latest advancements in electronics manufacturing.

Among the showcased technologies was the Koh Young Zenith Alpha HS+ AOI inspection solution, designed for automated optical inspection, alongside the KSMART software, aimed at gathering, analysing, and optimising PCBA processes to elevate quality and efficiency.

The exhibition also highlighted advanced systems essential for various stages of electronics production, including soldering, dispensing, inspection, board handling, and assembly. Standout equipment at Altus’ booth included the Asscon vapour phase reflow soldering unit for lead-free soldering, the debut of PVA's precision dispensing technology, the Quins inspection system known for its high-resolution imaging capabilities, and the YJ Link automated board handling system.

The Essemtec Fox 2, a multi-function SMT assembly machine suitable for high-mix, low-volume production lines, and Promation’s modular robotic soldering solutions, also attracted significant attention from attendees.

Joe Booth, CEO of Altus Group, expressed satisfaction with the company's performance at the event, stating: "The remarkable interest we encountered at this year's Southern Manufacturing exhibition underscores the growing demand for sophisticated solutions as electronics manufacturers strive to enhance quality, efficiency, and automation within their production lines. The UK presents a very promising landscape for electronics manufacturing at present. Our team is eager for the upcoming customer discussions and the potential for new collaborations throughout the year."

Following a year of record sales in the UK and Ireland in 2023, Altus is optimistically positioned for continued expansion, buoyed by the connections established and sales opportunities initiated at the 2024 Southern Manufacturing & Electronics exhibition.
