Arlon Takes on Role as EMC Master Distributor in North America
March 10, 2022 | Arlon EMDEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Arlon EMD, a division of Elite Materials Company (EMC), and an American manufacturer of specialty laminates is assuming the role of Master Distributor for EMC materials in N. America. Arlon has a 45-year history of manufacturing specialty materials for the Aerospace, Industrial and Military (AIM) markets.
This Master Distributor realignment will support the continued growth of EMC sales in N. America to meet customer demand of EMC products and provide shorter lead times. Arlon will assist with analytical and testing services on EMC laminates and prepregs. Arlon’s Q.A. testing capabilities, warehousing and manufacturing operation in Southern California will enable EMC to expand and centralize their logistical functions.
As the Master Distributor for EMC, Arlon will become the hub of importation for EMC laminates and prepregs. Arlon will use direct Arlon sales personnel, distributors, and agents to support fabricators’ requirements for EMC and Arlon specialty materials. As of June 1, 2022, fabrication customers may begin placing orders directly with Arlon or with one of Arlon’spartner distributors.
Elite Material Co. Ltd. (EMC) established in 1992 as a copper clad (CCL) and prepreg manufacturer, has become the global leader in the manufacture and supply of Halogen free CCL materials. Elite’s highly skilled Research & Development team has developed a family of materials from mid-loss to extreme low loss products. These materials are designed in complex PCB’s; mSAP, IC substrate, high layer count (HLC)/ high speed digital (HSD) and radio frequency (RF) products.
EMC has filed more than 250 patents globally, becoming a “technology leader” in Mobile Communications, AI, Cloud Computing Data Centers, 5G Infrastructure Network, Electric Vehicle (EV) and Autonomous Driving applications.

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.
Trouble in Your Tank: Supporting IC Substrates and Advanced Packaging, Part 5
03/19/2024 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankDirect metallization systems based on conductive graphite or carbon dispersion are quickly gaining acceptance worldwide. Indeed, the environmental and productivity gains one can achieve with these processes are outstanding. In today’s highly competitive and litigious environment, direct metallization reduces costs associated with compliance, waste treatment, and legal issues related to chemical exposure. What makes these processes leaders in the direct metallization space?
