Current IssueIn 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.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

Foxconn to Build AI Factories with NVIDIA Omniverse Platform
November 20, 2024 | FoxconnEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Foxconn announced it is collaborating with NVIDIA to build digital twins to reshape the future of manufacturing processes and supply chain management while opening new pathways for global deployment of advanced facilities and enhancing corporate resilience.
This forward-looking partnership first debuted at last year's Hon Hai Tech Day (HHTD23), showcasing Foxconn’s development on the NVIDIA Omniverse platform to create a 3D digital twin to plan and simulate automated production lines at the Taiwan Hsinchu factory. Omniverse adoption at the Hsinchu factory will be scaled out to worldwide Foxconn factories. Meanwhile, advancements in the Mexico factory enable the implementation of NVIDIA Omniverse, NVIDIA Isaac for robotics, NVIDIA Modulus for AI-driven simulations, and OpenUSD for data interoperability.
The core advantage of digital twin technology lies in its rapid scalability and simulating processes virtually before deploying in the real world, which has become key to Foxconn's strengthened global deployment. Through this technology, Foxconn can replicate and establish production lines across diverse geographical locations with unprecedented speed and precision. This capability enables Foxconn to swiftly deploy high-quality production facilities with unified standards in strategic markets worldwide, significantly enhancing the company's competitiveness and adaptability in the global landscape.
Beyond accelerating Foxconn's global deployment, these digital twin capabilities also significantly enhance the company's resilience. When facing supply chain disruptions or sudden market demands, Foxconn can quickly simulate manufacturing process changes, and adjust production strategies to flexibly allocate resources across different regions for itself and its clients, ensuring production continuity and stability. This high degree of adaptability and flexibility allows Foxconn to maintain a strong competitive advantage in the complex and ever-changing global economic environment.
