Eltek Continues to Invest, Increase Production Capacity
December 9, 2020 | EltekEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Eltek is excited to announce the new custom-built DES (Develop/Etch/Strip) line, for faster, more precise, and fully Industry 4.0 compliant production line.
All DES modules can be controlled and monitored independently with mobile terminal devices such as tablets or via web browser which improves process control and stability. The new Eltek DES Line can be directly connected to the production monitoring system which ensures traceability of inner layers. The specially designed conveyor enables Eltek to be able to process ultra-thin flex cores and will increase production capacity and yields.
The new DES line etching module was designed particularly for fine line etching which allows Eltek to reach 2 mil Line Space (L/S) and beyond for ultra-thin & high-density PCBs.
Eltek’s new DES line is designed for low power usage and high performance (IE4), reduced chemical consumption and lower environmental pollutant discharge for complete compliance to environmental regulations.
The company is confident that with this new DES line, and Eltek’s continuous investments in our production lines our customers will benefit from enhanced capabilities and leadtimes.
The new DES line is now undergoing testing and certification. It is operating in parallel with the former DES line to maintain full production capacity.

The Pulse: Drilling Down on Documentation
04/18/2024 | Martyn Gaudion -- Column: The PulseHow did a product aimed at signal integrity end up being more about documentation? For a little backstory, the Polar team has an unspoken “no business speak” rule at certain times. So, why is this column titled “Drilling Down?” I find it fascinating when a company sets off in one direction, but customers steer it in another. That’s what has happened here as customers took a product down a fork in the road we couldn’t predict. Your destination isn’t always where you initially set off to go, and that’s how we got to our subject of drills and drill documentation.

Marcy's Musings: The Growing Industry
04/16/2024 | Marcy LaRont -- Column: Marcy's MusingsAfter decades of steady decline in the U.S. and Europe, the PCB industry is finally growing, especially in China Plus One countries. The U.S. for example, which seemed to have abdicated its title as the world leader in innovating high-technology cutting-edge manufacturing processes, is now in a race to regain what it lost and then some. The PCB fabrication industry is growing in the West, thanks to DoD funding, the CHIPS and Science Act, and hopefully, the passing of HR 3249, the Printed Circuit Board and Substrates Act.
