Precision that becomes process.
Materials, tools and precision components for PCB manufacturing. From technical selection to continuity of supply, we support engineers, process managers and buyers throughout Europe.
Components for every critical stage of PCB manufacturing.
An offering organised by process and technical need, with the support of a single point of contact.
Base materials
Rigid, multilayer and flexible laminates, prepregs and high-performance materials.
Copper and foil
Standard and special foils for HDI, high-speed, high-frequency and flexible circuits.
Drilling and routing
Drills, routers, scoring tools and entry materials for hole quality and tool life.
Spindles and collets
Westwind components for stability, precision and runout control.
Measurement and calibration
Instruments for copper plating, concentricity and process parameter control.
Technical support
Defect analysis, troubleshooting, selectors, guides and application support.
We start with process data
Material, stack-up, diameter, machine and objective determine product selection. We collect the essential data, identify the required checks and define a technical basis for trials.
1. Application review
We examine the material, panel build, operation, tool and machine conditions.
2. Verification
We assess the possible causes of the problem or the constraints of the new application.
3. Technical recommendation
We recommend the product to assess and the initial parameters to verify in production.
Example data. The actual assessment depends on the application, the tool and the machine conditions.
Services for tools, spindles and drives
We assess the condition of the component and the work required. The aim is to restore function and precision when it makes technical and economic sense.
Drill and router regrinding
Inspection and regrinding of reusable tools, according to their geometry and wear condition.
Spindle repair
Diagnosis and refurbishment of spindles for PCB drilling and routing machines.
Drive repair
Inspection and repair of drives used in PCB manufacturing applications.
How we approach three typical situations
Situations we address with PCB manufacturers. For confidentiality, we do not publish company names, order details or individual customer results.
Hole quality in multilayer PCBs
Burrs, smear or irregular hole walls in thick multilayer PCBs.
Stable hole-wall quality and documented parameters for production.
Breakage in microdrilling
Frequent breakage of small-diameter drills.
Fewer breakages and an identified cause, not simply a change of tool.
Tool inventory planning
Variable consumption and a risk of downtime for critical diameters.
Availability of critical tools without excessive stock.
Tools for process decisions
Operational resources to collect data, perform preliminary checks and prepare a technical discussion.
Defect diagnosis
Guides covering burrs, smear, nail heading, breakout, runout, tool breakage and hole-wall quality.
Stack-up and tool selection
Tools to build the stack-up, check the drilling stack and identify the MPK Kemmer (Dtech Group) tool to trial.
Process calculators
Preliminary calculations for spindle speed, feed rate, chip load, tool life, entry material and runout.
Documentation and market
Catalogues, technical datasheets, manufacturer documentation and periodic analysis from PCB Market Watch.
Tool results are indicative. Final parameters must be verified on the machine, against the tool datasheet and under actual production conditions.
Let’s discuss your application
Tell us the material, process and objective. These details help us frame the request before the first contact:
- PCB type and material;
- process and diameter;
- tool and parameters used;
- problem observed or required outcome.
If you have a microsection, we can ask for it after the first contact.
Initial technical assessment within one working day.
Your contact is Pietro Cucciati, Technical Sales Manager.
QUICK TECHNICAL DIAGNOSIS
Describe the PCB defect
Share essential process data and, if useful, an anonymous microsection. Initial technical assessment within one business day.
PCB defect diagnosis sheets
Open the observed defect sheet: possible causes, recommended checks and initial corrective actions.
PCB TOOLS
Quick process calculators
Preliminary tools: always verify values against tool data, machine and actual conditions.
