Focus Tech is the only supplier to the PCB industry that designs and manufactures both process chemicals and control systems.
“Focus Tech is proud to roll-out a new company website this week,” commented Scott Campbell, Focus Tech founder and president. “The site www.focustechchem.com features over 50 product pages for a variety of chemicals we manufacture for a variety of applications. In two clicks, viewers will find technical information on what we offer. We designed it from the ground up to make it easy to access and navigate all our information.”
Focus Tech product lines include anti-foam, anti-tarnish, copper cleaners, etch chemicals, developers, strippers, as well as others commonly used in the manufacture of printed circuit boards and general metal finishing. Focus Tech also manufactures process control equipment and offers a variety of services to PCB fabricators.
Focus Tech is known for responding quickly to customer needs and evolving technology by providing custom chemical formulations and controller designs tailored to the specific requirements of a given process.
Campbell added, “Last year, we moved to a new 47,000 square-foot facility with significant capital investment to improve and streamline all operational, research & development, and manufacturing processes. This has allowed Focus Tech to expand its capabilities particularly in toll blending capabilities. One click on the website will take viewers to a robust overview of what we can do in chemical blendings, custom process controls, and services.
“Our new R&D laboratory allows various types of testing including wet titration, atomic absorption and UV/VIS spectroscopy, and cross sections. Our access to a scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive x-ray analysis equipment round out our test services.”
A part of The Redfern Companies, Focus Tech’s products, equipment, and services are distributed by Insulectro leveraging the distributor’s sales team and 11 stocking locations in North America.

Digital Twin Concept in Copper Electroplating Process Performance
07/11/2025 | Aga Franczak, Robrecht Belis, Elsyca N.V.PCB manufacturing involves transforming a design into a physical board while meeting specific requirements. Understanding these design specifications is crucial, as they directly impact the PCB's fabrication process, performance, and yield rate. One key design specification is copper thieving—the addition of “dummy” pads across the surface that are plated along with the features designed on the outer layers. The purpose of the process is to provide a uniform distribution of copper across the outer layers to make the plating current density and plating in the holes more uniform.
