PCBs in process of having copper pattern plated (note the blue dry film resist) Printed circuit board manufacturing is the process of manufacturing bare printed circuit boards (PCBs) and populating them with electronic components. It includes all the processes to produce the full assembly of a board into a functional circuit board.
Lamination is the technique/process of manufacturing a material in multiple layers, so that the composite material achieves improved strength, stability, sound insulation, appearance, or other properties from the use of the differing materials, such as plastic.
A typical industrial roll-to-roll process line. In the field of electronic devices, roll-to-roll processing, also known as web processing, [1] reel-to-reel processing or R2R, [2] is the process of creating electronic devices on a roll of flexible plastic, metal foil, or flexible glass. [3]
Cold foil printing, also known as cold foil stamping, is a modern method of printing metallic foil on a substrate in order to enhance the aesthetic of the final product. . Cold foil printing can be done two ways: the older dry lamination process common in the offset printing industry, or the newer, more versatile wet lamination process, which is dominant in the flexo label indus
The process is performed as follows: Sheet is adhered to a substrate with a heated roller. Laser traces desired dimensions of prototype. Laser cross hatches non-part area to facilitate waste removal. Platform with completed layer moves down out of the way. Fresh sheet of material is rolled into position.
Image of flexible printed circuits prior to de-panelization. An Olympus Stylus camera without the case, showing the flex circuit assembly. Flexible electronics, also known as flex circuits, is a technology for assembling electronic circuits by mounting electronic components on flexible plastic substrates, such as polyimide, PEEK or transparent conductive polyester [1] film.
Roll of die-cut pressure-sensitive labels on a release liner. A release liner or release paper, also called a backing liner, is a paper or plastic-based film sheet (usually applied during the manufacturing process) used to prevent a sticky surface from prematurely adhering.
The prepress process includes the preparation of artwork for press, media selection, proofing, quality control checks and the production of printing plates if required. The artwork is quite often provided by the customer as a print-ready PDF file created in desktop publishing.
