ICAPE Group Boosts PCB Quotation Process with Integr8tor
April 23, 2021 | UcamcoEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
ICAPE Group, headquartered in France and currently one of the world’s leading trading companies for the global PCB industry, realized that its PCB quotation process represented a bottleneck for its future growth and business targets, and that this part of its service had to be automated, made more professional, and offer faster turnarounds.
ICAPE tried various solutions, including in-house and off-the-shelf pre-CAM alternatives, but one solution stood head and shoulders above the rest: Ucamco’s Integr8tor, the PCB industry’s premier data entry and design analysis tool.
"Integr8tor improves many aspects of our business," says Fredéric Defresne, ICAPE's Chief Technical Officer. "It is a powerful catalyst for ICAPE’s increased growth, productivity and profitability into the future."

Speaking the Same Language as Your Fabricator
03/12/2025 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007 MagazineWe do indeed have a failure to communicate; designers and fabricators often seem to be talking past each other, which can lead to jobs being put on hold. We asked Jen Kolar, VP of engineering for Monsoon Solutions, and columnist Kelly Dack to share their thoughts on ways that we can break down the communication barrier between design and fabrication. As they point out, a design kickoff checklist and a solid review process can be invaluable tools in a designer’s toolbox.
