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.
Technology Roadmaps
In this issue of PCB007 Magazine, we discuss technology roadmaps and what they mean for our businesses, providing context to the all-important question: What is my company’s technology roadmap?

LPKF Supports EuroSkills 2021
September 23, 2021 | LPKFEstimated reading time: 1 minute
About 400 participants from 31 countries compete in the European Skills Championship - and LPKF is contributing systems for PCB prototyping.
At the competition from September 23 to 25, 2021, which will take place this year in Graz, Austria, around 400 young, fully trained professionals or graduates of a vocational high school will come together. During this time, the participants, who are no more than 26 years old, work quickly and very focused on their projects to win one of the much-coveted awards in around 45 different professions. LPKF supports the young people and this competition in the electronics sector and provides two LPKF ProtoMat circuit board plotters including PC and accessories.
Two application specialists from LPKF are on site at the competition to ensure smooth processing. Based on the CAD layout data created by the competitors, the circuit board plotters are used to produce the printed circuit boards - developed by the participants themselves - within a very short time, free of chemicals.
LPKF has already been a regular sponsor of the electrical engineering sector at EuroSkills and WorldSkills championships in recent years. "It is a fascinating task every time to support the young participants in the challenges of the competition. We are always extremely impressed by the outstanding skills, enthusiasm and innovative strength of the young participants," says LPKF employee Lars Führmann.
LPKF wishes all participants every success.
