Current IssueEngineering 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.

Mycronic Receives Order for Two SLX Mask Writers
November 5, 2024 | MycronicEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Mycronic AB has received an order for two SLX mask writers from a new customer in Asia. The order value is in the range of USD 13-15 million. Delivery of the first system is planned for the second quarter of 2025, while the second system is planned for delivery during the first quarter of 2026.
The SLX laser mask writer meets rising demand for photomasks for the semiconductor industry and a future need for replacement and modernization. Photomasks manufactured by laser mask writers are of high importance and account for a majority of all photomasks produced for semiconductor manufacturing. SLX is a modern and energy efficient mask writer based on the same technology as Mycronic’s mask writers for displays.
“Thanks to the modern SLX platform’s performance, productivity and reliability, we are able to attract new customers and successfully grow the installed base of SLX mask writers serving the semiconductor industry”, says Charlott Samuelsson, Sr VP Pattern Generators at Mycronic.
Mycronic’s Pattern Generators division provides mask writers and metrology systems for display manufacturing and production of semiconductors.
