Flex Connections: Four Lessons in Engineering Judgment for PCB Designers
Flexible Thinking: ‘Let There Be Light’–Emitting Diodes!
Target Condition: Flex and Rigid-flex Solutions in A&D Display Electronics
PCB fabricator American Standard Circuits (ASC) recently acquired the RLG 550-2 routing machine from Lenz.
“This new RLG-550-2 routing equipment improves our controlled depth milling process which is critical in rigid-flex manufacturing. The Lenz router is a camera-based system that enables scaling optimization. The spindle speeds and microlubrication systems facilitate routing/drilling thick metal-backed and metal-core substrates, which is important in allowing us to service our IMPCB and RF metal backed customers,” says Anaya Vardya, president and CEO of ASC. “This is a machine that performs so well, and at such speed, that it will also improve our process time. This is a critical attribute that helps us to continue to offer our customers quick turn-around services on our high-technology products such as flex and rigid flex PCBs.”
