The Hole Truth: Via Integrity in an HDI World
From the drilled hole to registration across multiple sequential lamination cycles, to the quality of your copper plating, via reliability in an HDI world is becoming an ever-greater challenge. This month we look at “The Hole Truth,” from creating the “perfect” via to how you can assure via quality and reliability, the first time, every time.
In Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.

Orbotech to Showcase its Nuvogo 1000 DI and Sprint 200 Solutions at productronica
November 10, 2015 | OrbotechEstimated reading time: 1 minute
At productornica this week, ORBOTECH LTD is exhibiting its recently launched, high accuracy Nuvogo™ 1000 Direct Imaging (DI) system which significantly enhances quality, production throughput and TCO and Sprint 200, the fast, high precision PCB legend inkjet printer.
Orbotech’s Nuvogo 1000 DI solution brings high accuracy and fast throughput to demanding patterning, solder mask and flex solder mask applications. Utilizing a high-power laser and Orbotech’s unique MultiWave Laser Technology, the Nuvogo 1000 delivers small undercut and excellent side walls. The high depth-of-focus achieved by field-proven Orbotech Large Scan Optics (LSO) technology ensures unmatched quality on the most challenging surface topographies. The system also offers advanced scaling modes for high precision registration, and a dual table mechanism to optimize imaging time.
When describing the Nuvogo 1000, Albert Angel, General Manager of Lab Circuits, a Spanish PCB manufacturer specializing in Quick Turnaround (QTA), said “With the Nuvogo 1000, our throughput increased by more than 65% on solder mask applications while maintaining the desired level of quality. Since one shift was eliminated, we also achieved significant cost savings.”
Powered by Orbotech DotStream Pro Technology, the new Sprint 200 delivers cost-effective, top quality industrial legend inkjet printing. It enables consistently accurate high volume production of even the most advanced legend designs on a wide range of substrate thicknesses and types, including rigid or flex. The Sprint 200 achieves close to 90% one-pass production coverage, significantly more than other leading solutions.
“Orbotech has always been committed to bringing innovative, cost-effective, high-quality solutions to Europe’s PCB manufacturers,” said Hadar Himmelman, Orbotech West President. “At Productronica 2015, our new Nuvogo 1000 DI and Sprint 200 Inkjet systems further demonstrate this commitment.“
Orbotech will also show other state-of-the-art PCB production solutions including the Fusion 22 Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) system and Frontline PCB Solutions’ CAM and Engineering software at Productronica show in Munich, Hall B1, Booth #321.

Driving Innovation: Direct Imaging vs. Conventional Exposure
07/01/2025 | Simon Khesin -- Column: Driving InnovationMy first camera used Kodak film. I even experimented with developing photos in the bathroom, though I usually dropped the film off at a Kodak center and received the prints two weeks later, only to discover that some images were out of focus or poorly framed. Today, every smartphone contains a high-quality camera capable of producing stunning images instantly.
