Hoe ziet de Benelux markt voor elektronica productie er over 10 jaar uit? Veel productie is vetrokken naar Azië en later naar Oost-Europa. Maar dit was zeker niet altijd succesvol. Reshoring is een nieuwe trend. Maar de vraag van OEM’ers is wel veranderd. Om te kunnen voldoen aan kleine series en snelle levertijden moeten EMS’ers […]
Presented by: Tania Drissen- Sirris Systems engineering (SE) is a complete process with 24 sub-processes to turn an early stage business idea or need of a client into a working product or process that satisfies all expectations throughout its life cycle. In this approach mainly the “technical management” processes are well known and common practice (project […]
The ubiquity of electronics has started and is imagined to increase even more. Future electronics are also expected to have a higher level of product integration with the boundaries between electronics and the remaining of the product less clearly defined. Electronics in textiles are a typical example of such integrated electronic devices. An intense collaboration […]
The classical assembly line is coming to a stop. Enter flexible production! The assembly line was introduced in the early 1900s. It skyrocketed the productivity of workers, for the first time allowing efficient mass production of standard products. The line timed and coordinated the actual production, dividing the work into standard repetitive actions that required […]

Presented by: Wesley Van Meensel – imec Your EMS supplier is delivering your requested Printed Board Assembly. But how certain are you about the quality of the PBA? What is the risk that your electronic module will not work after integrating it into your product or at the customer? What can we do during the design […]
The automotive industry is facing two major evolutions in the coming years: the move towards autonomous driving and the transformation from combustion to 100% electric cars. It is obvious that these trends push the demand for more electronic components and systems, but also increase the requirements towards reliability of these components/systems. In this workshop, several […]
European start-ups have traditionally been a tremendous source of innovation in the semiconductor industry. However, two major difficulties limit their technological and business impact on the global market: raising capital and obtaining specific start-up support. The Conference is the meeting place for start-ups, strategic investors, financial investors and everyone else who cares about the future […]
During this Seminar Day, engineers, researchers and R&D managers from the manufacturing industry will come together to learn more about the results of some of our recent projects. In 3 parallel sessions, project managers and industrial partners will elaborate on their newly acquired knowledge and on concrete cases that help companies to innovate. Each track […]
Presented by: Bart Vandevelde – imec In cEDM’s ‘reliability FMEA’ tool, we listed about 15 different failure mechanisms which over time can lead to electrical malfunctioning of the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) itself. One of the most dominant failures which are purely related to the PCB, is fracturing of the copper plated through hole via’s. […]
Electronics Everywhere, Everything Connected, Internet of Things (IoT), City of Things, Industry 4.0 all imply a distributed network of a large number of electronic devices that must be able to handle confidential, safety critical or other secured data in a reliable way. With 50 billion active devices by 2020 it is likely that security incidents […]
Davy Pissoort – KU Leuven Everyone has already been confronted with Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI), ranging from an annoying buzz in a stereo when receiving a phone call to a computer crashing during a lightning storm. Frustrating, but not life threatening. However, two trends warrant appropriate concern: (i) high-tech electronics is being used more and more […]
