In this issue, we examine the critical nature of building precisions into your inner layers and assessing their pass/fail status as early as possible. Whether it’s using automation to cut down on handling issues, identifying defects earlier, or replacing an old line...
Engineering 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.

Nano Dimension Announces Record Q4, Full Year 2023 Preliminary Results
January 3, 2024 | Nano DimensionEstimated reading time: 5 minutes
Nano Dimension Ltd., a leading supplier of Additively Manufactured Electronics (AME) and multi-dimensional polymer, metal & ceramic Additive Manufacturing (AM) 3D printing solutions, announced its financial results, on a preliminary basis, for the fourth quarter and twelve months ended December 31st, 2023. In conjunction with its unaudited preliminary results, Nano Dimension added comments from the CEO on the Reshaping Nano Initiative (the “Initiative”), the year ahead, and the announcement of senior leadership team changes.
Record Preliminary Unaudited Q4 and Full Year 2023 Results
Nano Dimension expects reported unaudited consolidated revenues of approximately $14.3 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31st, 2023, and approximately $56.2 million for the full year ended December 31st, 2023. Q4/2023 revenue is expected to grow 18% from Q4/2022, with full year 2023 revenue expected to grow 29% from full year 2022.
The above information reflects preliminary estimates with respect to certain results of Nano Dimension for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31st, 2023, based on currently available information. Nano Dimension’s audited final results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31st, 2023, may vary from the preliminary estimates.
Reshaping Nano Initiative
Nano is well underway in its Reshaping Nano Initiative (the “Initiative”, “RNI”), which was announced together with the third quarter results on November 28th, 2023.
The Initiative has the following objectives:
- Achieving positive operating income in early 2025, and
- Reducing cash burn comparing to 2023 by approx. 75%-85%,
- Expecting to reach cash flow positive post A above.
Nano Dimension is able to achieve this as it has reached greater scale and synergies on the back of its robust M&A program to date. Only three years ago, Nano Dimension was a niche company focused on additively manufactured electronics (“AME”). Today the Company is an advanced manufacturing leader as a pioneer in AME along with cutting-edge solutions for precision-additive manufacturing solutions, complemented by sophisticated and proven solutions in Additive Electronics (“AE”) and print systems, which are all brought together by a vision to apply our internally developed deep learning-based DeepCube/Deep Learning AI wherever possible. This is reflected in our financials with revenue going from $3.4 million in 2020 to $56.2M million this year, with approx. 29% organic growth over the last 12 months.
As Part of RNI
- During Q4/2023 The Company’s workforce worldwide was reduced by approximately 25%,
- The Executive Management group of the Company was reduced by 25%.
With greater scale and organizational efficiencies, we have already completed plans that looked critically at our costs of goods sold and operating expenses. You should expect to see a portion of the full year expected savings of $30 million in our results for Q1/2024. We want to highlight that the Initiative was crafted around setting financial objectives that reflect the maturity of our different groups and product lines, which allows us to stay focused on our innovation driven growth engines that make Nano Dimension such an exciting company.
Senior management changes
In part a reflection of the synergies that drive Reshaping Nano Initiative and in part in consideration of personal circumstances and business’s needs, Nano Dimension is also announcing a number of senior management changes.
