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?

Nano Dimension Sells Two High Precision 3D Fabrica 2.0 Systems to Accumold
December 28, 2022 | Nano Dimension Ltd.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Nano Dimension Ltd., a leading supplier of Additively Manufactured Electronics (AME) and multi-dimensional polymer, metal & ceramic Additive Manufacturing (AM) 3D printers, announced today the sale of two Fabrica 2.0 Micro-AM systems to Accumold, an expert in micro molding from Iowa, USA.
Accumold has been, for over three decades, a leader in design and manufacturing of small and micro injection molded components. Their applications stretch across multiple industries, including automotive, electronics, emerging tech, medical, and optical. Accumold serves vertical markets like micro-electronics, automotive electronics, fiber/micro-optics, medical micro molding and other emerging technologies.
Accumold has been a Beta customer of Nano Dimension’s Fabrica 2.0 system since May 2021. Following the performance of the system and how it has helped meet customer needs, Accumold decided to purchase the Beta system and an additional one Fabrica machine to further leverage the benefits of this disruptive 3D micro-printing capabilities.
Nano Dimension’s Fabrica 2.0 system enables the industry-wide drive towards miniaturization. The system and its specialized materials serve the demanding needs of several industries when it comes to high precision for high-performance applications. This includes micron level resolution of medical devices, micro-optics, semi-conductors, micro-electronics, micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), and micro fluidics. The Digital Light Processing (DLP) based system enables the critical advantages of additive manufacturing; namely, rapid prototyping, high-mix-low-volume production, IP security, and a minimal environmental footprint.
Aaron Johnson, VP Marketing and Customer Strategy at Accumold, shared, “As a leader in small and micro sized injection molding, we have pushed Nano Dimension’s Fabrica 2.0 system to its limits, and in doing so, we have been very satisfied with what we have seen. This is so much so the case that we decided to purchase two systems, rather than one as originally planned. We’re looking forward to continuing to use this leading technology and working with the Nano Dimension team.”
Dr. Jon Donner, Product Champion of the Fabrica product line, added, “We are proud to be working with the global market leader of precision injection molding. Their intimate knowledge of the high precision market and applications has pushed our product forward. The fact that they committed to purchase our Beta and added a purchase of a second system is a great vote of confidence for our product and the team behind it.”
