Current IssueThe Hole Truth: Via Integrity in an HDI World
From the drilled hole to registration across multiple sequential lamination cycles, to the quality of your copper plating, via reliability in an HDI world is becoming an ever-greater challenge. This month we look at “The Hole Truth,” from creating the “perfect” via to how you can assure via quality and reliability, the first time, every time.
In 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.

Rogers Expands Capabilities and Services With New Application Laboratory
June 12, 2024 | Rogers CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Rogers Corporation announced that the new application laboratory was completed, expanding the company's assembly, testing and inspection capabilities and services at the curamik® production site in Eschenbach. The establishment of the application laboratory started in 2023 by building a cleanroom facility inside an infrastructure at Gossenstrasse 45 in Eschenbach, followed by equipment sourcing and acquisition. The cleanroom was completed mid December 2023 with the delivery and installation of the acquired machines.
Rogers Expands Capabilities and Services with New Application Laboratory
The application laboratory allows Rogers to explore strategic partnerships with well-known, established manufacturers and suppliers in the industry with short lead times and capable lab equipment at a minimal cost. Establishing an in-house application laboratory meets the markets' and our customers' demand for quick and efficient support. The application laboratory has an 110m2 floor area that houses the equipment and with provision for next steps equipment’s for expansion, equipped with climate control to maintain temperature inside for equipment operational requirement and this is an ESD “Electro-static discharge” controlled area. Furthermore, it fulfils the ISO7 standard for a certified cleanroom facility.
In the application laboratory the following machines are available for assembly:
- Stencil Printer
- Vacuum Soldering System
- Die Attach
- Sintering Press
- Wirebonder
- Centrifugal Mixer
Moreover, a wide range of testing and inspection machines are available, such as:
- Thermal Resistance / Impedance Tester
- Hi-pot and Power Supplies
- Bending Fixture
- 3D Optical Profilometer
- Video Microscope
The focus of the application laboratory is to validate our products' value proposition for our customers and to offer key customers workability testing by request. Moreover, it allows us to evaluate new and emerging materials and process compatibilities to understand upfront our product performance. Rogers laboratory equipment and added services enhance our technical support capabilities for our customers and further differentiate Rogers from our competitors.
