March 1, 2016 | Business WireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Sunstone Circuits has announced the addition of an in-house Electroless Nickel Immersion Gold (ENIG) process to its Mulino, Oregon manufacturing facility. The semi-automated line is custom manufactured by RK Fabrication and will be utilizing chemistry by DOW Electronic Materials.

“We are excited to be adding this process to our in-house list of offerings, as it will benefit our customers in many ways,” said Sunstone’s Director of Operations, Nancy Viter. “As the demands on PCBs continue to drive smaller and tighter features, lead-free initiatives and reliability at assembly become even more important. We can now offer one of the most versatile surface finishes to our customers and make it quicker & easier to order, at a greater value.”
