Würth Elektronik Sets Up Virtual Exhibition Stand
June 30, 2020 | Wurth ElektronikEstimated reading time: 1 minute
As Würth Elektronik is not able to present new products to customers and interested parties in personal contact at trade fairs due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the manufacturer of electronic and electromechanical components has now set up a virtual exhibition stand.
Instead of visiting a trade fair, visitors will find an attractive online presentation of product innovations and the possibility to have a direct conversation in the chat.
The Würth Elektronik team offers a creative answer to the current situation with its virtual trade fair stand. Interested developers and manufacturers can use this platform to stay in close, personal contact with the manufacturer. Products are visualized with their technical data and can be discussed with Würth Elektronik specialists in the chat.
Component samples and developer support can be requested directly from the virtual booth. Also available: Tools for precise product selection such as the measurement database application REDEXPERT as well as order forms, catalogues and specialist books.
Focus topic Single Pair Ethernet
As lectures are held at exhibition stands, webinars can be found at the virtual exhibition stand. The current focus topic here is Single Pair Ethernet. Würth Elektronik offers solutions and standard-compliant reference designs that make this copper-saving cabling, which originates from the automotive sector, usable for industrial applications - for example for connecting sensors or as a replacement for other bus systems. Of course, visitors can also reach job advertisements and company information from Würth Elektronik in addition to the focus topic from the virtual booth.

Closing the Loop on PCB Etching Waste
09/09/2025 | Shawn Stone, IECAs the PCB industry continues its push toward greener, more cost-efficient operations, Sigma Engineering’s Mecer System offers a comprehensive solution to two of the industry’s most persistent pain points: etchant consumption and rinse water waste. Designed as a modular, fully automated platform, the Mecer System regenerates spent copper etchants—both alkaline and acidic—and simultaneously recycles rinse water, transforming a traditionally linear chemical process into a closed-loop system.
Driving Innovation: Depth Routing Processes—Achieving Unparalleled Precision in Complex PCBs
09/08/2025 | Kurt Palmer -- Column: Driving InnovationIn PCB manufacturing, the demand for increasingly complex and miniaturized designs continually pushes the boundaries of traditional fabrication methods, including depth routing. Success in these applications demands not only on robust machinery but also sophisticated control functions. PCB manufacturers rely on advanced machine features and process methodologies to meet their precise depth routing goals. Here, I’ll explore some crucial functions that empower manufacturers to master complex depth routing challenges.
Trouble in Your Tank: Minimizing Small-via Defects for High-reliability PCBs
08/27/2025 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankTo quote the comedian Stephen Wright, “If at first you don’t succeed, then skydiving is not for you.” That can be the battle cry when you find that only small-diameter vias are exhibiting voids. Why are small holes more prone to voids than larger vias when processed through electroless copper? There are several reasons.
The Government Circuit: Navigating New Trade Headwinds and New Partnerships
08/25/2025 | Chris Mitchell -- Column: The Government CircuitAs global trade winds continue to howl, the electronics manufacturing industry finds itself at a critical juncture. After months of warnings, the U.S. Government has implemented a broad array of tariff increases, with fresh duties hitting copper-based products, semiconductors, and imports from many nations. On the positive side, tentative trade agreements with Europe, China, Japan, and other nations are providing at least some clarity and counterbalance.
How Good Design Enables Sustainable PCBs
08/21/2025 | Gerry Partida, Summit InterconnectSustainability has become a key focus for PCB companies seeking to reduce waste, conserve energy, and optimize resources. While many discussions on sustainability center around materials or energy-efficient processes, PCB design is an often overlooked factor that lies at the heart of manufacturing. Good design practices, especially those based on established IPC standards, play a central role in enabling sustainable PCB production. By ensuring designs are manufacturable and reliable, engineers can significantly reduce the environmental impact of their products.
