SCS to Showcase Industry-leading Coating and Curing Technologies at the 2023 IPC APEX EXPO
January 12, 2023 | Specialty Coating Systems (SCS)Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Specialty Coating Systems (SCS) will exhibit in Booth #2301 at the 2023 IPC APEX EXPO, scheduled to take place Jan. 24-26, 2023 at the San Diego Convention Center in California. The SCS team will showcase the Precisioncoat VI, PrecisionCure UVC (MUV) and conformal coating services.
With outstanding reliability and precision, the PrecisionCoat VI offers customers unmatched conformal coating and dispensing flexibility through a wide range of valves, tools and features.
SCS will have its industry-leading Automatic Quick Change (AQC) feature available for live demonstrations on the PrecisionCoat VI platform. The system will feature five programmable axes, servo motor position control and up to eight tools on a single machine to achieve exceptional accuracy, repeatability and high throughput for a wide range of automated material applications.
Additionally, SCS will exhibit its innovative curing system that features programmable curing profiles and the smallest footprint in the industry to maximize valuable production floor space. The PrecisionCure UVC microwave UV curing system provides customers with the flexibility needed to take their manufacturing operation to the next level.
The PrecisionCure UVC (MUV) utilizes Heraeus Noblelight® microwave-activated UV lamps, the industry standard in microwave UV curing technology, and features a patent-pending lamp movement trolley that enables the UV lamp to move across the horizontal axis over a product on the conveyor. The curing system’s advanced lamp travel technology coupled with programmable curing profiles provides users with unparalleled control over the curing process.
With more than 50 years of experience in conformal coating engineering and applications, SCS is the world leader in Parylene, liquid, plasma polymerized, ALD and multilayer conformal coating technologies. The company is a direct descendant of the companies that originally developed Parylene, and leverages that expertise on every project – from initial planning to process application.

Breaking the Manual Quoting Bottleneck in Wire Harness
04/15/2026 | Nolan Johnson, SMT007 MagazineArik Vrobel has spent more than 35 years in wire harness manufacturing—starting in EL-Com, his father's shop, building it into a nationally recognized contract manufacturer, and ultimately selling to Aptiv/Winchester in 2021. But retirement didn't last long. Within months, Arik was back, not as a manufacturer this time, but as a technologist. His new company, Cableteque, is building the quoting and data automation platform he always wished existed.
Podcast Hits the Mark in a Materials Market
04/15/2026 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007The base material of a printed circuit board is its literal and functional foundation. Isola, founded in 1912 in Düren, Germany, is one of the longest-standing manufacturers of glass-reinforced laminates in the electronics industry. Originally focused on insulation and fiberglass materials, the company played an early role in supplying the foundational substrates that enabled the growth of PCB technology. As electronics advanced, Isola evolved alongside the industry, expanding from basic glass-epoxy laminates into high-performance copper-clad materials and engineered prepregs.
