Current IssueVoices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.
It's Show Time!
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.

Aismalibar to Attend productronica 2019
October 27, 2019 | AismalibarEstimated reading time: 1 minute
As the only exhibition of this kind, productronica showcases the entire value chain in electronics manufacturing – from technologies and components to software and services. Approximately 45,000 professionals attended the conference in 2018 and it continues to grow each year.
After successful participation in the 2018 edition of productronica, Aismalibar will attend the Munich event and showcase its latest developments in IMS laminates, as well as the new range of automation for production of PCBs of the Technosystem brand.
Aismalibar will be located in productronica Hall B3 with stand 351. In addition to offering personalized attention to all those who seek information, it will exhibit machinery from the Technosystem catalog, a brand of The Benmayor Group that develops technology and machinery for the production of PCBs. Aismalibar will also present its new range of loaders, unloaders and robots for the production of printed circuits.
Aismalibar will also showcase COBRITHERM ULTRATHIN 4W - TG180ºC - 150ºC MOT, an insulated metal substrate (IMS) based on an aluminum cladding with an ED copper sheet on the opposite side, containing an innovative ultra-thin polymer-ceramic dielectric layer of its own formulation, offering industry-leading thermal conductivity and high dielectric strength. It also offers strong MOT, high Tg and low CTE values, which are the key elements for performance of MPCBs operating at high temperatures.
The Thermal Multilayer product range will also be presented as well as products for the development of multilayer PCBs that can be combined to customize solutions for complex electronic designs and applications. THIN LAM and BOND SHEET can be used in standard multilayer lamination processes to improve resistance to thermal shocks, conductivity and thermal dissipation.
The new THIN LAM and BOND SHEETS of 3.2W have been developed to reduce thermal resistance. An MOT of 150ºC, high Tg values of 180ºC and low CTE below 1.8% (50 to 250ºC) considerably improve the overall thermal efficiency.
About Aismalibar
AISMALIBAR is a manufacturer of copper clad laminates who produces high quality base materials for the PCB industry. AISMALIBAR was one of the first IMS laminate manufacturers in the world and was the first in Europe.

RF PCB Design Tips and Tricks
05/08/2025 | Cherie Litson, EPTAC MIT CID/CID+There are many great books, videos, and information online about designing PCBs for RF circuits. A few of my favorite RF sources are Hans Rosenberg, Stephen Chavez, and Rick Hartley, but there are many more. These PCB design engineers have a very good perspective on what it takes to take an RF design from schematic concept to PCB layout.
Trouble in Your Tank: Causes of Plating Voids, Pre-electroless Copper
05/09/2025 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankIn the business of printed circuit fabrication, yield-reducing and costly defects can easily catch even the most seasoned engineers and production personnel off guard. In this month’s column, I’ll investigate copper plating voids with their genesis in the pre-plating process steps.
Elephantech: For a Greener Tomorrow
04/16/2025 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineNobuhiko Okamoto is the global sales and marketing manager for Elephantech Inc., a Japanese startup with a vision to make electronics more sustainable. The company is developing a metal inkjet technology that can print directly on the substrate and then give it a copper thickness by plating. In this interview, he discusses this novel technology's environmental advantages, as well as its potential benefits for the PCB manufacturing and semiconductor packaging segments.
Trouble in Your Tank: Organic Addition Agents in Electrolytic Copper Plating
04/15/2025 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankThere are numerous factors at play in the science of electroplating or, as most often called, electrolytic plating. One critical element is the use of organic addition agents and their role in copper plating. The function and use of these chemical compounds will be explored in more detail.
