Frontline PCB Solutions' InCAM Software Reaches a Record 1,500 Seats
October 25, 2017 | Frontline PCB SolutionsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Frontline PCB Solutions announced at the TPCA show that its InCAM preproduction CAM solution has achieved a record number of 1,500 seats worldwide. InCAM is now deployed at over 330 sites — over 60 relying exclusively on InCAM — and has thousands of certified operators using InCAM software to produce the majority of advanced designs powering mobile devices today.
“InCAM delivers tangible benefits which explain its success,” said Yovav Sameah, president, Frontline. “Most of the world’s advanced fabricators already rely on InCAM’s high-precision CAM tooling and advanced data integrity for robust production across all PCB industry segments. The launch of InCAM Flex in 2016 significantly expanded InCAM’s capabilities and penetration, and Frontline’s partnership with Mentor ensures compliance with the ODB++ data format. Frontline has pioneered innovative CAM solutions for over twenty years and remains focused on meeting the challenges of this fast-moving industry. “

It’s Only Common Sense: OCCAM—the Time Is Now
04/22/2024 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseOne of my favorite books is a little tome called Who Moved My Cheese? Even those of you who don’t spend a lot of time reading books have at least heard of it and know that it refers to people, especially in business, who are so stuck in their ways that they get upset when something changes. In our business, we know this kind of thinking is especially true. In fact, it always makes me laugh when one of my innovative friends finds a new way to do something and is afraid that someone will steal his idea. I always tell him that no one in our business, especially a PCB engineer, has ever thought about someone else’s innovative idea enough to steal it.
