Arlon EMD Expands Distribution with AMS Products
February 3, 2017 | Arlon EMDEstimated reading time: 1 minute
On December 21, 2016 Arlon EMD (Arlon) announced an agreement with Doosan-Electro Materials to distribute Doosan’s DS600 flexible copper-clad laminates in North America, as well as Doosan’s high Tg FR-4 and halogen-free laminate and prepreg product lines.
In addition, Arlon is expanding their long-standing partnership with AMS Products, Inc., (AMS) to include distribution of the Arlon and Doosan product lines in the states of Arizona, California, Oregon and Washington. “Arlon and AMS have a strong relationship and a 15-year history of successfully working together. It is only natural that Arlon and AMS should expand their respective product lines. We will make Doosan products fully available to AMS throughout their territory,” commented Brad Foster, VP and General Manager of Arlon EMD.
AMS brings an in-depth knowledge of Arlon’s full line of products as well as strong technical sales skills to enhance support of fabricator customers. In addition to Arlon and Doosan laminate materials, AMS’s product line portfolio includes Kyocera, MacDermid Enthone, Sun Chemical, Multiline, Accusystems, ATG, Miva, and Camtek. “AMS is excited to expand our Arlon relationship with the addition of Doosan laminates and flex materials. These products from Doosan Electro Materials allow AMS to provide our customers with a broader range of laminates for the Rigid, Rigid-Flex and Flex PCB markets," commented Sach Pasarnikar, President of AMS Products.
About AMS Products, Inc.: AMS is a privately held US distributor and manufacturer’s representative of printed circuit board equipment and materials. AMS has been in business for 17 years and is headquartered in Carlsbad, California.
About Arlon: Arlon EMD is a privately held, veteran owned, US manufacturer and distributor of specialty materials. Arlon has supplied materials for the N. American, UK and European markets for more than 25 years from their manufacturing location in Rancho Cucamonga, California.

The Chemical Connection: Reducing Etch System Water Usage, Part 2
05/02/2024 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionIn my last column, I reviewed some relatively simple ways to reduce water usage in existing etch systems: cutting down cooling coil water flow, adding chillers to replace plant water for cooling, lowering flow rate nozzles for rinses, etc. This month, I’ll continue with more ways to control water usage in your etcher. Most of these are not easily retrofittable to existing equipment but should be given serious consideration when new equipment is contemplated. With the right combination of add-ons, it is possible to bring the amount of water used in an etch system to almost zero.
Designer’s Notebook: What Designers Need to Know About Manufacturing, Part 2
04/24/2024 | Vern Solberg -- Column: Designer's NotebookThe printed circuit board (PCB) is the primary base element for providing the interconnect platform for mounting and electrically joining electronic components. When assessing PCB design complexity, first consider the component area and board area ratio. If the surface area for the component interface is restricted, it may justify adopting multilayer or multilayer sequential buildup (SBU) PCB fabrication to enable a more efficient sub-surface circuit interconnect.

Heavy Copper PCBs: Bridging the Gap Between Design and Fabrication, Part 1
04/01/2024 | Yash Sutariya, Saturn Electronics ServicesThey call me Sparky. This is due to my talent for getting shocked by a variety of voltages and because I cannot seem to keep my hands out of power control cabinets. While I do not have the time to throw the knife switch to the off position, that doesn’t stop me from sticking screwdrivers into the fuse boxes. In all honesty, I’m lucky to be alive. Fortunately, I also have a talent for building high-voltage heavy copper circuit boards. Since this is where I spend most of my time, I can guide you through some potential design for manufacturability (DFM) hazards you may encounter with heavy copper design.
