Current IssueVoices 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.
It's Show Time!
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.

Ventec Raises Global Production Capability & Control with Increased Prepreg Treating Capacity In Taiwan
July 13, 2022 | VentecEstimated reading time: 2 minutes

Ventec International Group Co., Ltd. is investing in new prepreg treating capacity at its Taiwan facility to expand its global manufacturing capability, control and supply chain flexibility. The new treating equipment, which features a specially designed impregnation system, includes multiple independent pipe work and pumping systems that will significantly minimize downtime when switching between resin systems. The upgrade is in line with Ventec’s strategy to offer high mix, quick turn supply of a wide range of specialty prepregs and laminates to its global customer base in Asia, Europe, and the United States of America.
Ventec’s latest manufacturing upgrade is designed for the production of thin-core laminates for use in the most demanding applications such as high reliability military, aerospace / space and other ultra-high reliability applications. With a capacity of up to 400,000 meters per month, the new specialist equipment can handle a wide range of glass fabrics from 1027/1037 to 7628 thanks to its superior tension control mechanism. As such it significantly ramps up Ventec’s global supply capacity directly from Taiwan for VT-901 and VT-90H polyimides as well as the full range of No Flow / Low Flow prepregs for rigid flex applications.
The new treater setup in Taiwan will be equipped with Ventec’s proprietary multiple stage filtration systems on the front end and 100% Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) for prepreg FOD-control on the back end. This ensures that all Ventec materials meet the highest standards of quality for all its customers including military & aerospace and automotive customers. Ventec’s Quality Management Systems are of course accredited with AS9100 quality standard, and conversant with applicable IPC, space agency and MIL-STD specifications.
“Taiwan is central to our strategy to drive long-term growth and expand our global leadership position,” said Jason Chung, CEO of Ventec. “The investment in Taiwan significantly increases our manufacturing capacity, drives production efficiency and accelerates the delivery of the high-reliability materials our customers demand.”
Mark Goodwin, COO EMEA & America added: “The investment in this manufacturing capacity increase at our Taiwan facility is driven by strong growth in demand for our high-reliability solutions manufactured on state-of-the-art machinery. Combined with our know-how in PCB base material technologies and our strong track record in global supply chain control, the capacity increase and multiple independent pipework design further enhances our capability to switch between resin systems quickly and efficiently. It allows us to offer high mix quick turn deliveries of a wide range of laminate and prepreg products. The front-end proprietary filtration, and backend AOI ensure, we deliver FOD free materials and can manufacture to meet the requirements of the highest standards such as IPC4101 Appendix A, for space applications.”
