Current IssueRules of Thumb
This month, we delve into rules of thumb—which ones work, which ones should be avoided. Rules of thumb are everywhere, but there may be hundreds of rules of thumb for PCB design. How do we separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak?
Partial HDI
Our expert contributors provide a complete, detailed view of partial HDI this month. Most experienced PCB designers can start using this approach right away, but you need to know these tips, tricks and techniques first.
Silicon to Systems: From Soup to Nuts
This month, we asked our expert contributors to weigh in on silicon to systems—what it means to PCB designers and design engineers, EDA companies, and the rest of the PCB supply chain... from soup to nuts.

IBR Optimizes Incoming Customer Data Handling using Ucamco’s Integr8tor
December 7, 2016 | UcamcoEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
IBR Leiterplantten has optimized their data handling by implementing Ucamco’s Integr8tor. IBR Leiterplatten is not just a typical online shop. They are a medium-sized family company staffed by a very friendly and capable team of experts ready to tackle any printed circuit board project, now more than ever.
Nothing can replace experience, and that is exactly what IBR customers can benefit from every day. Thanks to their wealth of experience, this successful company from the Heilbronn area can take on any technical challenge, and will be happy to advise and support any project implementation. There is an art to handling simple printed circuit board requirements and special projects without errors. Sources of errors can often be dealt with during the data check, saving unexpected costs. This is another important reason why IBR's CAM operator workstations are equipped with the latest technology and software. It can be difficult to get an overview of more complex printed circuit board projects and despite taking great care, errors may creep in. IBR stands for consistently high quality, flexibility and optimum value-for-money. To meet these requirements going into the future, IBR daily perfects its processes, which are already highly optimised.
“We are growing and the number of new projects is constantly increasing,” explains Managing Director Christian Ringler. “In order to be even better and more efficient, we need the right in-house tools to meet our own requirements and the constantly increasing demands of our customers. That is why we decided to introduce Integr8tor software.”
Integr8tor analyses all incoming customer files for obvious errors, bottlenecks and manufacturability, coming up with a complete report of all the specifications within a few minutes, without any input from the user.
“This saves us time and it means our customers can get more precise information about preprogrammed production errors at the quotation stage. Otherwise this would only be possible after putting quite a lot into CAM work,” confirms Technical Manager Stephan Mantei.
Christian Ringler adds, “Integrating the Integr8ator software into our processes was really easy. It is user-friendly and the analysis results can be viewed by all our staff members. Through the next steps, the results will be transferred automatically to the quotation form. Ucamco did the installation and Integr8tor training brilliantly and they will be an important partner of IBR in the future.”
