PCB007 Magazine August 2024: Advancing Wet Process Control
August 15, 2024 | IPC Community Editorial TeamEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
By and large, the overarching truths of process control and quality management are immutable. Whether Deming, Lean or Six Sigma, precision process control is becoming more important as technology advances and environmental considerations loom large.
Nowhere is this more true than in the wet process area of PCB fabrication. Long experienced to be dirty, smelly and somewhat unsafe, that is no longer the case. But are we where we should be when it comes to control over our wet processes?
In the August 2024 issue of PCB007 Magazine we asked wet process experts Mike Carano, Mike Brask, Happy Holden, and Don Ball to share their wisdom.

The Death of the Microsection
06/26/2025 | Bob Neves, Reliability Assessment Solutions, Inc.I got my start out of college grinding and polishing PCB microsections. My thumbs are a bit arthritic today because of the experience (microsection grinders know what I mean). Back then, via structures were rather large, and getting to the center in six steps of grinding and polishing was easy compared to what my team has been doing recently at the lab.
