Ventec International Group has appointed Kyle Pattie account manager for the US Eastern region, selling and supporting all product lines to help the company further develop its presence in the region.
Pattie is a graduate from the University of Delaware with a Bachelors of Arts in International Relations and a minor in history. His conversational level of Mandarin Chinese was a great advantage during his internships at Ventec's corporate headquarters in Suzhou, China, Ventec's manufacturing facility in Jiangyin, and at the US regional headquarters in Amesbury, Massachusetts. Kyle recently completed a further internship at Tokio Marine HCC.
Pattie says, "My intensive internships have given me very important, transferable skills and, in particular, an in-depth knowledge of the Ventec product range – an essential foundation for my new role in supporting all sales activities in the Eastern region of the USA."
Mark Goodwin, COO Ventec EMEA & USA, added, “I have every confidence that the knowledge Kyle brings to the role, coupled with his winning mentality and personality, will greatly benefit our customers. Ventec prides itself on the strength of its people and I am pleased to welcome Kyle to the Ventec team."

Fresh PCB Concepts: PCB Design Essentials for Electric Vehicle Charging
11/27/2024 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsElectric vehicles (EVs), powered by electricity rather than fossil fuels, are transforming transportation and reducing environmental impacts. But what good is an EV if it can't be easily charged? In this month's column, Ramon Roche dives into the role of printed circuit boards (PCBs) in electric vehicle charging (EVC)—and the design considerations.
Unlocking Advanced Circuitry Through Liquid Metal Ink
10/31/2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamPCB UHDI technologist John Johnson of American Standard Circuits discusses the evolving landscape of electronics manufacturing and the critical role of innovation, specifically liquid metal ink technology, as an alternate process to traditional metallization in PCB fabrication to achieve ever finer features and tighter tolerances. The discussion highlights the benefits of reliability, efficiency, and yields as a tradeoff to any increased cost to run the process. As this technology becomes better understood and accepted, even sought out by customers and designers, John says there is a move toward mainstream incorporation.
Fresh PCB Concepts: The Critical Nature of Copper Thickness on PCBs
10/31/2024 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsPCBs are the backbone of modern electronics and the copper layers within these boards serve as the primary pathways for electrical signals. When designing and manufacturing PCBs, copper thickness is one of the most critical factors and significantly affects the board’s performance and durability. The IPC-6012F specification, the industry standard for the performance and qualification of rigid PCBs, sets clear guidelines on copper thickness to ensure reliability in different environments and applications.
