Ventec’s German Facility Successfully Passes ISO 9001:2015 Audit
August 15, 2018 | Ventec International GroupEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Ventec International Group’s Central European facility located in Kirchheimbolanden, Germany has successfully passed the audit for the ISO 9001:2015 quality management standard.
The nearly 3000sqm manufacturing, distribution and sales facility in Germany was first certified for ISO 9001:2015 back in 2016 joining Ventec's global network of manufacturing and service centers in Asia, Europe and the USA that all comply with the standard.
PCB fabrication customers can continue to rely on Ventec's fully accredited supply chain for high reliability laminates and prepregs. From manufacture through fabrication and delivery, Ventec's high-quality product portfolio of polyimides, high reliability FR4, its tec-speed range of high speed/low loss materials and the tec-thermal range of high performance IMS materials are all covered by the certification.
"ISO guidelines and quality certifications such as AS9100 Rev D, IATF 16949:2016 and IPC 4101 QPL are very important for Ventec," said Mark Goodwin, COO Europe & Americas. "Passing the audit at our German facility in Kirchheimbolanden is in line with our overall strategy to offer best services and quality materials to our clients across our global supply chain. ISO 9001 along with our other certifications recognizes that our team ensures consistent quality of our solutions."
Frank Lorentz, Production Manager at the German facility added: "The team in Kirchheimbolanden should take great pride in this accomplishment which reflects their hard work in implementing and practicing the highest levels of quality throughout our manufacturing processes, enabling our customers to engage Ventec as a strategic partner in their safety-critical supply chains, based on our commitment to managing delivered quality to the highest standards."

The Chemical Connection: Reducing Etch System Water Usage, Part 2
05/02/2024 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionIn my last column, I reviewed some relatively simple ways to reduce water usage in existing etch systems: cutting down cooling coil water flow, adding chillers to replace plant water for cooling, lowering flow rate nozzles for rinses, etc. This month, I’ll continue with more ways to control water usage in your etcher. Most of these are not easily retrofittable to existing equipment but should be given serious consideration when new equipment is contemplated. With the right combination of add-ons, it is possible to bring the amount of water used in an etch system to almost zero.
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.
