Current IssueEngineering Economics
The real cost to manufacture a PCB encompasses everything that goes into making the product: the materials and other value-added supplies, machine and personnel costs, and most importantly, your quality. A hard look at real costs seems wholly appropriate.
Alternate Metallization Processes
Traditional electroless copper and electroless copper immersion gold have been primary PCB plating methods for decades. But alternative plating metals and processes have been introduced over the past few years as miniaturization and advanced packaging continue to develop.

Averatek and RBP Chemical Technology Announce New Distribution Agreement
April 13, 2020 | AveratekEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Averatek Corporation has announced that RBP Chemical Technology will become a new distribution partner. RBP will be supplying supporting chemistries that are needed by licensees of Averatek’s A-SAPTM process. The core LMITM (Liquid Metal Ink) chemistry will continue to be supplied directly by Averatek. A-SAPTM is an advanced PCB manufacturing technology that enables feature sizes of 25 microns and below effectively providing PCB designers with new opportunities to address the challenges of next generation electronics.
“RBP looks forward to assisting Averatek in bringing their new A-SAPTM technology to market by manufacturing and distributing the additional process components. The arrangement takes full advantage of our strengths in delivering innovative product, quality and logistics solutions, and Averatek’s ability to formulate advanced technologies for high density PCB and semiconductor applications”, said Mark Kannenberg, CEO of RBP.
Averatek is proud to partner with RBP Chemical Technology to provide support and distribution of chemistries related to our A-SAPTM process” said Haris Basit, CEO of Averatek. “Their record as a proven and reliable supplier with a commitment to delivering consistently high-quality chemistries along with exceptional service will be of tremendous benefit to our licensees.”
Averatek’s A-SAPTM is an advanced manufacturing process for printed circuit board fabrication with trace and space widths as narrow as 15 microns. This process can dramatically reduce area, layer count and weight of electronics systems as well as provide significant RF benefits. A-SAPTM has been designed to be easily integrated with traditional PCB manufacturing equipment and materials.
