Hanwha Semitek Participates in US Surface Mount Technology Exhibition 'IPC APEX'

Introducing the Versatile High-Speed Chip Mounter XM520

Hanwha Semitek will participate in 'IPC APEX Expo 2025,' the largest surface mount technology (SMT) exhibition in North America.

Hanwha Semitek announced on the 19th that it will showcase the XM520, suitable for high-mix, high-volume production, and the HM520, optimized for low-mix, high-volume production lines, at the IPC APEX Expo held from the 18th to 20th (local time) at the Anaheim Convention Center in California, USA. SMT is a technology that automatically mounts electronic components on the surface of printed circuit boards (PCBs), and over 400 manufacturers worldwide will exhibit equipment at the IPC APEX Expo.

The XM520 introduced by Hanwha Semitek is a versatile high-speed chip mounter capable of mounting 100,000 chips per hour. With a high-precision control system, it can accurately mount everything from ultra-small components to irregularly shaped parts.

In addition to SMT equipment, Hanwha Semitek also introduced the integrated software solution 'T-Solution,' which maximizes production line operational efficiency from optimal production planning to material management and monitoring.

Earlier, last month, Hanwha Semitek changed its company name from Hanwha Precision Machinery to Hanwha Semitek, reflecting its commitment to becoming a 'comprehensive semiconductor manufacturing solution company.' At the same time, Kim Dong-sun, Vice President and the third son of Hanwha Group Chairman Kim Seung-yeon, joined as the head of future vision.

Kang Tae-woo, head of Hanwha Semitek's North American branch, said, "We plan to support customers in the North American market to produce products efficiently and stably."
