Repair, replace, or go in a completely different direction? Such is the crossroads at which many PCB fabricators find themselves when it comes to changing their current processes toward additive or staying the course until something significant compels a change. But change is afoot, and it would appear to be the vast technological leaps for chips and advanced packaging for which additive manufacturing offers the PCB fabricator some solutions to participate.
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine, we talked to several industry members about additive manufacturing technology for the PCB fabricator. Though modern semi-additive and fully additive technologies are still emerging for PCB manufacturing, additive technology is not new. Our contributors to this issue discuss where it stands today, where the benefits truly lie, and where it seems to be headed.
