Current IssueInner Layer Precision & Yields
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.

ULT Introduce New Extraction Solution for Combustible and Carcinogenic Laser Dusts
August 6, 2024 | ULT AGEstimated reading time: 1 minute
ULT is introducing the LAS 260 H/Ex, a new solution for removing critical dust during various laser processes. The explosion-proof device was developed for extracting and filtering dry, combustible, and health-endangering pollutants (dust and fumes) that can arise during laser processing of plastics and metals.
As an ATEX-compliant system designed to be free of ignition sources, the LAS 260 H/Ex is suitable for installation and operation within a zone 22 and enables the safe separation of combustible dust. Even the finest particles are separated to 99.995% in a two-stage filter system including a HEPA H-14 filter and safety filter stage.
The safety filter with integrated activated carbon filling ensures the safe operation of the device and removes gases that are hazardous to health and unpleasant odors. Due to the high level of cleaning, the filtered clean gas can be fed back into the work area even when carcinogenic, mutagenic, or toxic dust is separated (recirculation mode).
In addition to the redundant filter system, the LAS 260 H/Ex provides further user benefits such as high flexibility through mobile utilization, extremely quiet operation, and low energy consumption.
All electrical components are suitable for UL and CE compliant use. In addition, the device can be used worldwide with a voltage range of 110-240 V.
To ensure compliance with the minimum volume flow of >20 m/s, an automatic monitoring system is integrated, which issues a warning signal if the flow falls below this limit.
A collection element (hose, pipe, extraction arm) with DN50 can be connected to the extraction and filter system. In addition, an M12 i
