Current IssueFueling the Workforce Pipeline
We take a hard look at fueling the workforce pipeline, specifically at the early introduction of manufacturing concepts and business to young people in this issue of PCB007 Magazine.
Inner 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.

New Desmear Line from TSK Schill GmbH in Operation at Hofstetter PCB AG
April 19, 2021 | TSK Schill GmbHEstimated reading time: Less than a minute

TSK supplies its long-standing and highly valued customer with a new horizontal chemical wet process machine.
TSK Schill GmbH continues to make progress in wet process machine engineering. Their long-time customer Hofstetter PCB AG in Switzerland invests in a new Desmear line, after the old line had now unfortunately become outdated. The exceptionally good cooperation between Hofstetter and TSK made the project a success, and now that commissioning has been completed, the customer is ready for the future.
"We are very proud to have implemented a very important project with the new Desmear line for Hofstetter PCB in this time and are looking forward to support also in future requests," says Sales Manager Marc Aicheler.

Flexible Thinking: Mind-tapping into January
02/05/2025 | Joe Fjelstad -- Column: Flexible ThinkingIt’s January again, and our beleaguered planet has completed yet another trip around the sun. The Romans named January in honor of their god Janus, who is usually depicted as a bearded old man with two faces—one looking back to the past and the other looking forward to the future. People venerated Janus as the god of beginnings and endings, transitions, and the passage of time. With that in mind, I’ll look 10 years into the future—hopefully with a bit of inspiration from Janus—and prognosticate what might be happening in electronic design.
Designers Notebook: Addressing Future Challenges for Designers
02/06/2025 | Vern Solberg -- Column: Designer's NotebookThe printed circuit board is and will probably continue to be the base platform for most electronics. With the proliferation of new generations of high I/O, fine-pitch surface mount semiconductor package variations, circuit interconnect is an insignificant factor. Circuit board designers continually face challenges such as component quantity and complexity, limited surface area, and meeting the circuit board’s cost target. The printed circuit design engineer’s prominent position demands the development of efficiently manufacturable products that perform without compromise.
