Design PCB layouts that meet performance requirements, pass validation, and move confidently into manufacturing.

This demonstration line is jointly developed by the Global Electronics Association (GEA) together with Aurotek, Advantech AI, and Universal Robots, fully adopting the GEA/IPC CFX standard to enable plug-and-play connectivity, real-time data exchange, and end-to-end traceability. The line integrates AI-driven inspection and safety monitoring with collaborative robot automation, while seamlessly connecting to MES, ERP, and cloud platforms to create a highly connected smart manufacturing environment. Through this CFX showcase, the solution demonstrates a comprehensive digital management model spanning production, quality, and workforce safety—helping electronics manufacturers accelerate smart factory adoption, improve operational efficiency, and reduce overall risk.

This course introduces foundational principles for understanding electrical systems and electronic hardware. Topics include basic DC and AC electrical theory, passive and semiconductor components, the use of basic test tools, and familiarity with common methods of inspection.

An IMAPS/Global electronics association Workshop Focused on Increasing Domestic MicroelectronicS Production

IPC WorksAsia is a technical exchange brand built by IPC China for the electronics manufacturing industry which focuses on the key technologies and standard practices, connects engineering technology with industry applications, and promotes the communication and implementation of advanced manufacturing experience.

The Global Electronics Association, is pleased to announce that IPC Builds 2026 is now open for registration. IPC Builds 2026 is a week-long series of standards development meetings to be held in Europe for the second time, following the first Barcelona success in 2024. Over the years, volunteers worldwide have participated in IPC standards development committee meetings to bring the most trusted standards for electronics manufacturing to the industry. In 2026, we’re excited to head to Paris for this traditional and industry-driving event.
