March 8, 2022 | ExcellonEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Excellon announces the installation of a COBRA-II Hybrid Laser System by TCLAD, Inc. of Prescott, Wisconsin. The Excellon COBRA-II Hybrid Laser System offers both UV and CO2 (IR) laser sources on a single platform. A large work area offers added capability for those companies running high-density prototypes and production PCBs.
Acquiring the Excellon COBRA-II laser adds yet another addition to our lineup of state-of-the-art circuit processing equipment at our Prescott Wisconsin facility. Over the years we have found the accuracy and speed of the Excellon COBRA lasers to be impressive, the new COBRA-II laser is no exception. We are seeing greatly reduced throughput time with excellent tolerance capability. This allowed us to reduce lead times and better meet the demanding dimensional challenges of our customer requirements. (Steve Taylor, Director of Technical Support, Global BDM)
