Advanced Copper Foil (ACF) to Display Full Line of Circuit Foil Copper Foils at IPC APEX 2016
March 8, 2016 | Advanced Copper FoilEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Having signed an exclusive distribution agreement with Circuit Foil Luxemburg in 2015, ACF is now fully ready to provide value-added copper foil products to all regions of the United States and Canada.
ACF welcomes customers and will be exhibiting its full line of Circuit Foil Copper Foils and Aluminum Supported Copper Foils at the IPC/APEX Show in Las Vegas March 15-17, Booth 447.
Foils for the PCB Manufacturer
On display will be standard shiny foils, high bond/Polyimide foil, low loss, ultra-low loss and HVLP foils. There will be a complete display of LP, VLP, HVLP and foils with “Almost No Profile” (Rz ≤ 1.3um). ACF also offers a host of specialty foils for PTFE, Flexible Circuits, ultra-thin foils (≤ 2um) and foils specially designed for High Speed Low Loss Laminates.
Copper Foil with Aluminum Carrier
See both the AFC2, Single-sided Aluminum, and the ACF3, Double-sided Copper Aluminum Copper layers. Manufactured in a clean-room, the ACF family of products guarantee a pristine copper surface, free of debris and other foreign materials. These products also protect the copper surface from epoxy spots and finger prints during the Multilayer Layup process. The unique process, established with complete cleanliness in mind, does not require aluminum shearing during the manufacturing process as others products do. This in conjunction with our unique tooling and proprietary panel cleaning processes allows ACF to guarantee our customers the highest quality panels without the concern of aluminum particles or other foreign materials, with any tooling configuration required.
Special Shielding and Battery Foils
Complete line of foils for industrial markets such as battery and shielding, as well as our foils for PCB application.
About ACF
Advanced Copper Foil is a company dedicated to High Performance Copper Foils and their applications in the Printed Circuit and Battery Shielding Industries. ACF2 and ACF3 aluminum supported foils are products that facilitate the PCB layup process, improve efficiencies and provide a carrier for ultra-thin foils. We are committed to providing PCB Fabricators, Laminate Manufacturers and Battery Shielding Companies with a cost-effective alternative to the traditional products on the market today.

Designer’s Notebook: What Designers Need to Know About Manufacturing, Part 2
04/24/2024 | Vern Solberg -- Column: Designer's NotebookThe printed circuit board (PCB) is the primary base element for providing the interconnect platform for mounting and electrically joining electronic components. When assessing PCB design complexity, first consider the component area and board area ratio. If the surface area for the component interface is restricted, it may justify adopting multilayer or multilayer sequential buildup (SBU) PCB fabrication to enable a more efficient sub-surface circuit interconnect.

Heavy Copper PCBs: Bridging the Gap Between Design and Fabrication, Part 1
04/01/2024 | Yash Sutariya, Saturn Electronics ServicesThey call me Sparky. This is due to my talent for getting shocked by a variety of voltages and because I cannot seem to keep my hands out of power control cabinets. While I do not have the time to throw the knife switch to the off position, that doesn’t stop me from sticking screwdrivers into the fuse boxes. In all honesty, I’m lucky to be alive. Fortunately, I also have a talent for building high-voltage heavy copper circuit boards. Since this is where I spend most of my time, I can guide you through some potential design for manufacturability (DFM) hazards you may encounter with heavy copper design.
Trouble in Your Tank: Supporting IC Substrates and Advanced Packaging, Part 5
03/19/2024 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankDirect metallization systems based on conductive graphite or carbon dispersion are quickly gaining acceptance worldwide. Indeed, the environmental and productivity gains one can achieve with these processes are outstanding. In today’s highly competitive and litigious environment, direct metallization reduces costs associated with compliance, waste treatment, and legal issues related to chemical exposure. What makes these processes leaders in the direct metallization space?
