Epec Now Offering PCB Layout and Design Services
July 21, 2017 | EpecEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Epec Engineered Technologies, one of America’s oldest printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturers located outside of Boston, Massachusetts, is now offering PCB layout and design services to their customers.
Founded in 1952, Epec has a long history with circuit boards and the PCB industry. Over the past 65 years, Epec has worked on countless circuit board parts for some of the top tier OEMs in the electronics industry. From having PCBs on the Apollo 11 spaceflight, which landed the first humans on the Moon, to their recent advancements in heavy and extreme copper circuit boards, Epec’s sixty-five year history of innovation has truly made them a thought leader amongst the electronics community.
Ed McMahon, CEO of Epec, said, “We have been offering PCB layout and design services a while now, we just never had a large demand for it. In the past when a customer came to us looking for PCB design help, we wouldn’t turn them away; it was just not an advertised offering in our product line.”
Epec’s PCB layout and design services encompass a full design flow including rules driven designs, schematic capture, library development, database construction and verification, signal integrity/design verification, EMI checking and many others.
McMahon added, “We are now seeing more and more companies come to us to help them with their circuit board layout needs. Having the resources in-house allows us to be an extension of our customers engineering teams. We’ve also seen the benefits of customers having their PCB layout and design done by the same company that will be manufacturing their boards as it helps to reduce cost by only designing exactly what they need.”
As Epec continues to expand their PCB supply chain and services, they do so with one goal in mind; to provide their valued customers what they need and when they need it.

The Chemical Connection: Surface Finishes for PCBs
03/31/2025 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionWriting about surface finishes brings a feeling of nostalgia. You see, one of my first jobs in the industry was providing technical support for surface cleaning processes and finishes to enhance dry film adhesion to copper surfaces. I’d like to take this opportunity to revisit the basics, indulge in my nostalgia, and perhaps provide some insight into why we do things the way we do them in the here and now.
