Ventec International Group Co., Ltd. is proud to announce that it has passed the ISO 9001:2015 audit for its Quality Management System at its US-facility in Fullerton, following an audit by certifying body Intertek. This follows the certification of Ventec’s Chicago facility earlier this year.
ISO 9001:2015 sets out the criteria for a quality management system and is based on a number of quality management principles including a strong customer focus, the motivation and implication of top management, the process approach and continual improvement. The hard work put in by Anthony Guerra, Julie Vance and the entire Ventec Fullerton staff, supported by Steve Williams from TRAC has ensured achieving a perfect audit with official certification being issued this month.
"Further to successfully certifying our Chicago facility in April of this year, I am very proud that our Fullerton facility now has also successfully passed the ISO 9001:2015 audit without any instances of non-conformity," said Jack Pattie, President Ventec (USA). "It recognizes the hard work of the entire Ventec team and confirms the success of our quality strategy for the benefit of all our customers."
"Ventec's global emphasis on implementing and maintaining a seamless QMS that adds value to the business is second to none. Jack and the entire team in Fullerton embraced the process and were highly engaged in the development and implementation. The results speak for themselves; a perfect audit for Fullerton to match Chicago’s results earlier this year. It is a pleasure working with an organization that gets it," added Steve Williams, President of TRAC.
"Ventec maintains robust quality management systems in all its facilities around the world including AS9100 Rev D and IATF 16949:2016, ensuring that all our customers receive reliable, consistent, good quality products and services from us through our fully controlled global supply chain," said Mark Goodwin, COO Europe & Americas.

Happy’s Tech Talk #40: Factors in PTH Reliability—Hole Voids
07/09/2025 | Happy Holden -- Column: Happy’s Tech TalkWhen we consider via reliability, the major contributing factors are typically processing deviations. These can be subtle and not always visible. One particularly insightful column was by Mike Carano, “Causes of Plating Voids, Pre-electroless Copper,” where he outlined some of the possible causes of hole defects for both plated through-hole (PTH) and blind vias.
Trouble in Your Tank: Can You Drill the Perfect Hole?
07/07/2025 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankIn the movie “Friday Night Lights,” the head football coach (played by Billy Bob Thornton) addresses his high school football team on a hot day in August in West Texas. He asks his players one question: “Can you be perfect?” That is an interesting question, in football and the printed circuit board fabrication world, where being perfect is somewhat elusive. When it comes to mechanical drilling and via formation, can you drill the perfect hole time after time?
The Evolution of Picosecond Laser Drilling
06/19/2025 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineIs it hard to imagine a single laser pulse reduced not only from nanoseconds to picoseconds in its pulse duration, but even to femtoseconds? Well, buckle up because it seems we are there. In this interview, Dr. Stefan Rung, technical director of laser machines at Schmoll Maschinen GmbH, traces the technology trajectory of the laser drill from the CO2 laser to cutting-edge picosecond and hybrid laser drilling systems, highlighting the benefits and limitations of each method, and demonstrating how laser innovations are shaping the future of PCB fabrication.
