Current IssueVoices 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.
It's Show Time!
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.

November 8, 2023 | Ventec International GroupEstimated reading time: 2 minutes

Ventec Giga Solutions, the equipment division of Ventec International Group announces it has been appointed by Surge Robotic as sales agent and distributor of Optical PCB Layup Systems. The agreement covers EMEA, UK and the Americas.
Surge Robotic was founded in 2020 and launched the industry’s first four-camera optical PCB laminating system after two years of extensive research and development. The Falcon Lineup offers unprecedented precision and productivity.
Falcon employs four corner etch targets to align and detect PCB inner layer deformation to calculate and modify placement. Scratch free handling for all PCB layers of any type of material is ensured. Additionally, PCB manufacturers can use inner layer measurement data to monitor and adjust their processes accordingly, thus enabling Smart Manufacturing.
"Falcon offers the fastest layup system on the market and is optionally available with a fully automatic loading system," said Ramesh Dhokia, Business Unit Director, Ventec Giga Solutions. "With our goal to provide our customers with the best PCB manufacturing equipment available in the industry, we are thrilled to add them to our Ventec Giga Solutions offering. We are excited to showcase our new relationship with Surge Robotic at Productronica 2023 at booth B3/242."
"We aim to leverage Surge Robotics' breakthrough technology and innovative spirit into a competitive advantage within our Ventec Giga Solutions PCB equipment lineup. Their unique machine technology delivers the value and performance our customers need for the future of manufacturing," added Mark Goodwin, COO of Ventec International Group.
Ventec Giga Solutions handles factory design, equipment selection, sales, installation, commissioning, and training on behalf of customers. The division’s competencies and connections with numerous leading equipment suppliers, combined with the Ventec portfolio of high-performance substrate laminates and prepregs, presents a one-stop-shop for PCB manufacturers, OEMs, and manufacturing services companies to quickly establish and rapidly expand their facilities.
