Multicircuits Installs New Nordson/March Plasma Unit
December 14, 2022 | MulticircuitsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute

Michael Thiel, VP of operations at Multicircuits, announced the installation of a new Nordson/March Plasma Unit. This unit is designed specifically to perform etchback operations on special materials such as Polyimide other thermal substrates. It can also handle PCBs with fine pitch, high frequency component geometry that requires low dielectric constant (DK) materials, primarily PTFE, which have poor adhesion rates.
“After performing extensive capability studies and in consideration of our current and future customer demands, we have found that the Nordson Plasma unit will meet our demanding requirements,” said Multicircuits’ Director of Sales and Marketing Jerry Smith. "Our customers’ needs are of the utmost importance and something we consider very seriously when making our equipment acquisitions.”
