Abstract: A Surface Mounted Technology (SMT) monitoring system and method includes setting an alarm threshold of an accident probability, and obtaining the output data from a monitor unit. The SMT monitoring method further includes calculating the accident probability according to the obtained output data, and sending an alarm command to trigger an alarm unit located at the SMT production lines to output an alarm signal if the calculated accident probability is greater than or equal to the set alarm threshold of the accident probability.

Abstract: An application server and method collects and stores machine data from one or more machines. The application server sends a data acquisition command to a sensor of the searched machine to acquire the machine data of the searched machine, in response to a determination that the machine has been found according to a search command. The application server updates the machine data file with the acquired machine data, and transfers the updated machine data file to a database system.

Abstract: A server in electronic communication with at least one data acquisition unit via a wireless receiver. The server measures energy consumption and productivity of a machine. The machine is installed with a current analyzer and a detection unit, and wirelessly connects to the at least one data acquisition unit. The current analyzer measures the energy consumption of the machine. The detection unit calculates the productivity of the machine. After a search command is sent to the wireless receiver, a usable data acquisition unit collects the energy consumption and the productivity of the machine. The server analyzes the energy consumption and productivity of the machine and generates an analysis chart. The analysis chart is displayed on a display screen.

Abstract: In a surface mount technology (SMT) measurement system and method, the number of PCBs input to an SMT production line, the frequency of solder paste printing of the PCBs, the frequency of surface mount component placement of the PCBs, and a yield of the PCBs are calculated. Accordingly, production performance of the SMT production line is determined. The production performance is output to an output device.

Abstract: A data communication network system comprises: a data receiving layer which comprises data communication terminals (DCT), a route layer which comprises routers. Each of the routers receives data from the DCTs or from other router 50 of the route layer. The network system further comprise a data receiving layer which comprising a receiver, which receives the data from the routers.
