Current IssueIn Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

American Standard Circuits Installs LAMV 125 Lamination Press from Burkle
February 15, 2023 | American Standard CircuitsEstimated reading time: 1 minute

West Chicago, Illinois PCB fabricator American Standard Circuits has recently purchased and installed a new Burkle LAMV 125 thermal oil heated lamination press.
This state-of-the-art solution from Burkle incorporates the latest technology. Details of the thermal oil heated press, type LAMV include:
- Press range: 20 tons – 2000 tons
- Hydraulically operated
- Thermal oil heated and cooled
- Vacuum available
- Operating temperatures up to 385° C
- Platen size up to 1.400 x 2.350 m.
“This new press will give us the layer-to-layer registration and lamination thickness that we need as we continue to raise our level of technology. This will also prove beneficial when it comes to tighter registration as well as drilling accuracy for both location and depth-controlled drilling,” commented ASC President and CEO Anaya Vardya.
