MKS Sees Strong Sales for its Latest Flexible PCB Laser Processing Solution
December 02 2020 - 9:00AM
MKS Instruments, Inc. (NASDAQ: MKSI), a global provider of
technologies that enable advanced processes and improve
productivity, today announced that a leading PCB manufacturing
customer in the Greater China region has purchased 80 units of the
company’s ESI CapStone system for near-term delivery. CapStone is
MKS’ latest flexible PCB laser processing system. It leverages the
latest high-power, high-repetition rate laser technology and new
beam control capabilities to deliver higher production throughput
and higher yields.
“CapStone has definitely been a game changer,”
said John Williams, Vice President and General Manager of MKS’
Equipment and Solutions division. “As Flex PCB manufacturers
continue to upgrade their processing capabilities to address new
technologies such as 5G, the CapStone system is enabling them to
take advantage of latest-generation laser technology to stay
current in a very competitive market.”
CapStone’s high-speed laser technology and
unique beam positioning combine to allow manufacturers to meet the
challenges associated with processing an increasingly-diverse set
of flex PCBs at high yields, including 5G antennas and feedlines,
wireless charging circuits, displays, cameras, and many other flex
applications. With its significant throughput gains, process
flexibility, and proven robust deployment even at large scale,
CapStone reduces factory footprint and time to market for flex
manufacturers to achieve the production capacity necessary to meet
their accelerating flex demand.
