Tight Tolerances The current precision parts manufacturing industry relies on a plethora of processes to assemble any end product. Each product is a collection of smaller parts joined together to fulfill a certain task or purpose. Just like any sports team, in order to win all the players must play well within a certain framework […]
It’s not easy being a PCB design engineer. It involves having so many choices and design considerations, but it’s usually the things that they have no choice in that make their job very difficult. Issues like copper trace width, copper layer thickness, component profiles and overall PCB size restrictions would ruin a perfectly good workday for any […]
So if you’ve been following our website you probably think that all we do is laser cutting. We certainly did our best to bash mechanical machining and show you why laser is a better option. This is certainly still true for depaneling PCBs and cutting thin materials. With that being said, we do have a […]
Laser Cut Kapton Polyimide from A-Laser If you’ve dealt with product design, especially products that involve electronic and electrical circuits, then you have probably dealt with Kapton. Kapton polyimide cover layers are prized for their strength and durability. Cutting through these cover layers requires a high level of precision, which is why we at […]
Prototypes are an important part during any design process. It enables engineers and designers to test and qualify all aspects of their products before they release them to their end customers. Modern day products usually have electronics embedded within the design to accomplish all sorts of different functions. Almost all electronic designs require the use […]
Ever helped your dad fix something over the weekend? It’s funny how something as easy as hanging a picture frame can end up with you cutting a 2X4 with a power saw. Even the simplest projects like putting together an IKEA piece of furniture can turn out to be an absolute nightmare when you end […]
Electronics designers at their final design stages are faced with multiple options for preparing their circuit boards for production. Coming to a final decision as to what method to use for routing and de-paneling boards can be challenging sometimes, it certainly depends on the design and nature of the components on the boards and even […]
Chemical Etching vs Laser Milling Remember how fun it was to play with an “Etch A Sketch” when you were a kid? You can create any drawing you want if you had the patience, that is! If I told you that a process similar to “Etch A Sketch” is still being used today in the […]
When Paul Eisler invented the first PCB back in 1936, he probably didn’t know how significant his invention was. His invention enabled the easy reliable addition of electronic circuits to everything in our modern day life. As technology advances, the demand to make those circuit boards lighter, cheaper and more invisibly integrated into everyday designs […]
