Before production begins on any printed
circuit board, our engineers
thoroughly review all files sent to MPC for production Using our Computer
Aided Manufacturing (CAM) tools and our extensive experience. We look
for design flaws and weak spots before they become
costly production
problems (DRC - Design Rule Check). This step also determines if
the customer’s
board specifications are within our production
capabilities (MR - Manufacturability Review). Only when our engineers
are satisfied that all layers on the board are sound, is the
file set-up
for photo-plotting and subsequent production.
Besides good people and good
equipment, production of printed
circuit boards calls for an immaculate facility as well as a high
degree of organization. Regular maintenance, enthusiastic house-
keeping practices as well as controlled environments take care of
keeping the facility clean. The complex processes necessary to
produce circuit boards combine the diverse fields of contact
photography, N/C machining and inorganic chemistry. A
computerized order tracking system, using bar-code readers at
all stations, helps us keep track of all orders through all our
processes so as to maintain the tight delivery schedules our
customers have come to expect.
