Kelly Dack: What are your reactions to the show?
Jered Stoehr: I always like seeing the demonstration of the line that they have with all the installations. Last year, it was upstairs. This year, it’s right here on the main floor. What I like is the CFX and the Hermes standards and the little flags, showing IPC-CFX supporters. It’s nice to see the data standards for how these machines are connecting and communicating. I’m glad to see that moving forward because that’s going to be a huge thing for our industry.

Zero Touch Data Package: The Future of Seamless PCB Manufacturing
05/22/2025 | Dana Korf, Victory Giant TechnologyImagine a day when a design data file—not a traditional documentation package—is output directly from the eCAD system, transmitted to selected fabricators, and automatically loaded into their engineering/CAM systems, initiating tooling and production without any human intervention. This is zero touch data transfer in action. By eliminating manual processes, front-end personnel at fabrication facilities can be redeployed to strategic areas such as R&D and customer engagement.
Trouble in Your Tank: Yield Improvement and Reliability
05/22/2025 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankThere’s a simple rule of business in manufacturing: “It is all about yields.” Higher yields for your products allow for increased profits and satisfied customers. When there are lower yields, overall cost to manufacture increases, and the additional time and strain on the factory floor affect the entire operation. Lower yields are often the result of “process drift,” when critical process parameters and specialized plating additives fall outside their acceptable ranges.
