Chemcut: Blending Capabilities and Culture
October 9, 2023 | Nolan Johnson, PCB007Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Mike Soble, who works in technical sales for Chemcut, explains that despite the long distance between Idaho and Pennsylvania, working with Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories on its new facilities was truly a perfect match.
Nolan Johnson: Chemcut was selected by Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories (SEL) for its new facility in Moscow, Idaho. What equipment did you put into their facility?
Mike Soble: We installed a DES (develop/etch/strips), a DES Pre-Clean, an oxide system, a HASL-Pre-clean, and a solder mask developer. Two of those systems were duplicates.
Johnson: What are the advantages of Chemcut equipment for this project?
Soble: Philosophically, this was a good match between Chemcut and SEL. They want to partner with vendors that are geographically close. Certainly, we had an advantage over other competitors because we’re based in the U.S.
We've been around for 65 years, so we have a great degree of stability. Even though central Pennsylvania is a bit far from Idaho, we can get there. SEL has a very large cross-functional team, and once they visited Chemcut and met our team, they decided very quickly on buying our equipment.

A Promising Future for Automation
03/21/2023 | Christopher Bonsell, ChemcutThis year, I had the great opportunity to come to IPC APEX EXPO in San Diego as a contributing member in Chemcut’s booth. Being an exhibitor is always interesting because you never know what you will learn or who you will meet. Truly, it seems that every IPC APEX EXPO is an eye-opening experience. This was the second show I attended, and last year I was amazed to see how in-depth and interconnected the electronics industry is. Seeing how many different companies contribute to manufacturing today’s core technology never fails to impress me.
