Winonics Invests $3.9M in Equipment for Lean Six Sigma Renovation
September 30, 2021 | WinonicsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Winonics Brea, an Additive Circuits Technologies, LLC company, is pleased to announce its “Facility Master Plan.”
Winonics has set out to differentiate itself by investing approximately $3.9 million in to a facility-wide renovation plan that includes extensive equipment and technology upgrades along with infrastructure improvements that are grounded in the principles of lean manufacturing and lean six sigma disciplines.
The Facility Master Plan offers a vision into advanced technology PCB fabrication with the expectations of creating a world-class PCB manufacturing facility and a research and development center for the company’s patented additive manufacturing technology.
“We are investing in our four pillars; equipment and technology, people, process, and methodology,” said David Torp, Winonics’ CEO. “When fully executed the plan is transformative and will set a new standard for PCB manufacturing; placing Winonics among the top advanced technology providers in the country.”
The plan, which will support Winonics’ strategic plan priorities and facilitate the commercialization of the company’s additive manufacturing technology, is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2022.

Setting Design Constraints Effectively
07/31/2025 | Stephen V. Chavez, Siemens EDAPCB design requires controlling energy within the medium of a PCB. The manner in which we control the chaos of energy is by implementing and utilizing physical and electrical rules, known as constraints, along with a specific structure and material(s) that make up what is known as the foundation of the design. These rules govern everything within the PCB structure and generally fall into two camps: performance and manufacturability. Setting this foundation correctly is extremely important and the key to success.
Direct Metallization: A Sustainable Shift in PCB Fabrication
07/31/2025 | Jim Watkowski, Harry Yang, and Mark Edwards, MacDermid Alpha Electronics SolutionsThe global electronics industry is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by the need for more resilient supply chains and environmentally sustainable manufacturing practices. Printed circuit boards (PCBs), the backbone of interconnection for electronic devices, are at the center of this shift. Traditionally, PCB fabrication has relied heavily on electroless copper, a process that, while effective, is resource-intensive and environmentally hazardous. In response, many manufacturers are turning to direct metallization technologies as a cleaner, more efficient alternative.
