Matrix USA Holds Open House at Santa Clara Facility
September 25, 2015 | Matrix USA Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Matrix USA featured an Open House at their Santa Clara, California Warehouse on September 15, 2015. This event was held in conjunction with the PCB West Technical Conference and Exhibition at the Santa Clara Convention Center. Over 90 customers, OEMs and suppliers attended the catered event.
The year-old facility proudly displayed the state of the art Panasonic prepreg storage and clean room converting and tooling area. Also on display were the high speed saw for cutting Panasonic materials and the ink jet marking system that marks lot and part numbers on all materials with indelible ink.
Maybe the most impressive room displayed was the clean room dedicated to cutting rolls of Panasonic Felios flexible laminates and Matrix Plus coverlays and adhesives. These capabilities provide the flex fabricators custom widths and lengths and very quick response times.
Along with racks of Megtron 6 and 6G and Megtron 4 products visitors were able to see substantial inventory levels of Jinzhou drills and routers. On display was the dedicated temperature controlled room for AGFA films and chemistry.
New Matrix associate, Advanced Copper Foils (ACF), had a display on hand to show attendees samples of their ACF2/ACF3 bonded aluminum copper products as well as sheeted and tooled copper foils exclusively using Circuit Foils copper foil.
Thanks to everyone who attended and to all the Matrix staff who created this very clean and efficient facility.

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?
