Teknoflex Ltd., the UK's largest manufacturer of flexible circuits, sculptured circuits and flex-rigid multilayers has recently acquired an Excellon Laser, offering the company's "blue chip" customer base a capability for precision small hole drilling and cutting

The purchase of this combined CO2/Yag laser demonstrates the commitment Teknoflex has in continuing to extend its technological capabilities in supporting its diversified customer base.

Keith Netting, Technical Director, explains, "We have been monitoring the rise in demand from customers requiring smaller holes and precision cutting as technology moves progressively to further miniaturisation. By bringing this previously sub-contracted process in house, there will be both an attractive financial payback, greater control and an increase in our already extensive process capabilities."

Teknoflex is the sole UK dedicated flexible circuit manufacturer to hold AS9100 approval which embraces all aspects of the company including design, circuit manufacture and component assembly. The company is also heavily engaged in the SBAC SC21 programme, demonstrating its commitment to the importance of Supply Chain development and world-class performance.

Teknoflex is continuing to lead the UK market in offering widely diversified flexible circuit technologies whilst relentlessly enhancing and extending its internal process capabilities.
