Current IssueIn 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.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

Cicor Strengthens Financial Flexibility with New Financing
July 4, 2017 | CicorEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Cicor signed a new syndicated loan facility on Friday 30 June 2017 with a financing framework to the amount of 75 million Swiss francs.
The financing will be used to preserve long-term financial flexibility and guarantees the Cicor Group's continuing growth. The credit, arranged by a banking consortium under the guidance of the Commerzbank AG, has a term of four years with two options for extension by an additional year each time, thus making a maximum term of six years.
With the new financing arrangement, the credit agreement of 65 million Swiss francs signed in December 2014 and due to expire at the end of 2017 is replaced early. In addition to the longer term and higher volume of the new syndicated loan, Cicor may also benefit from more advantageous conditions.
