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.

Nano Dimension’s Additive Electronics Product Line - Essemtec - Received a Global Technology Award
December 11, 2024 | Nano DimensionEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Nano Dimension Ltd, a leading supplier of Additively Manufactured Electronics (AME) and multi-dimensional polymer, metal & ceramic Additive Manufacturing (AM) 3D printing solutions, announced that its Tarantula Underfill system from its Essemtec product lines received the Global Technology Award for Innovation at the SMTA International 2024 Show (the “SMTA Show”) in Chicago, Illinois.
Essemtec’s Tarantula Underfill system is critical in the additive electronics value chain for assembly of complex devices. It involves dispensing an epoxy-based composite along the edge of a chip, which fills the gap between the chip and the substrate, or printed circuit boards, through capillary action.
This innovation enhances mechanical strength by reducing stresses caused by thermal expansion and vibration, while also improving durability, reliability, thermal cycling, and moisture ingress. This process is critical and in growing demand for industries like aerospace, defense, and heavy-duty sectors, where electronics must withstand harsh conditions and require high durability and robust performance.
The heart of Tarantula Underfill’s innovation is in its non-contact heating solution that enables the underfill process on two-side populated printed circuit boards (“PCBs”) and its precise dispensing control of medium.
Olivier Carnal, General Manager for Additive Electronics, shared, “We are proud to be recognized by the SMTA Show for our innovation. Our Tarantula Underfill product is unique yet flexible. In addition to its primary function as an underfill solution, the Tarantula Underfill offers the full range of Essemtec dispensing machine operations. With five different valve options - time-pressure, volume dispensing, micro screw, solder paste jetting, and glue jetting - it allows us to develop customized solutions to meet almost any customer need.”
Yoav Stern, Nano Dimension’s Chief Executive Officer, added, “I am extremely pleased to be able to announce that we have yet again launched another innovative product, which was designed and produced by our Nano Dimension team in Switzerland. This innovation uniquely meets our customers’ needs. Our ability to deliver this technology for production for large printed circuit boards will allow us to address a wide range of industries immediately.”
