Insulectro Energizes Booth at IPC APEX EXPO with Power Chats
February 22, 2018 | InsulectroEstimated reading time: 3 minutes
Insulectro has announced it will repeat its highly anticipated 13.5 minute power chats during this year’s IPC APEX EXPO at the San Diego Convention Center, February 27 – March 1, 2018.
The Insulectro Power Chats, branded ipc@IPC, will provide details on many new products, processes and services that Insulectro plans to introduce in 2018.
“We are pleased to continue our ipc@IPC - Insulectro Power Chats,” commented Ken Parent, Vice President of Sales & Product Management, “We’ve taken our top eight most interesting, new products and processes for 2018 and crafted short, info-packed learning sessions to be presented during IPC APEX EXPO. In 13.5 minutes per topic, attendees will learn the WHAT/WHY/HOW of these 8 game changers.”
Currently, Amphenol, DuPont, Isola, Oak-Mitsui, and Shikoku will be featured.
“Our new products can change the way a board is designed and fabricated. In our field testing, we’re hearing ‘We could have never made this board before’,” continued Parent. “We’re anxious to share our process information about our offerings in very concise power chats in our booth we’ve combined with Isola - #317/#417 – it’s the largest in materials section of the show.”
Insulectro Vice President of Technology Chris Hunrath agrees, “Over the past six years our IPC Power Chats have been enormously popular. Often times, it’s standing room only. That’s due to the intriguing topics we spotlight in our chats and in our booth. This year is no exception. For instance, although IPC APEX is primarily a PCB industry tradeshow, we know many of our customers are interested in printed electronics so we’ve included a 13.5 minute Boot Camp on PE.”
