April 23, 2021 | UcamcoEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
ICAPE Group, headquartered in France and currently one of the world’s leading trading companies for the global PCB industry, realized that its PCB quotation process represented a bottleneck for its future growth and business targets, and that this part of its service had to be automated, made more professional, and offer faster turnarounds.
ICAPE tried various solutions, including in-house and off-the-shelf pre-CAM alternatives, but one solution stood head and shoulders above the rest: Ucamco’s Integr8tor, the PCB industry’s premier data entry and design analysis tool.
"Integr8tor improves many aspects of our business," says Fredéric Defresne, ICAPE's Chief Technical Officer. "It is a powerful catalyst for ICAPE’s increased growth, productivity and profitability into the future."
