In the areas of flex circuit designs and flex circuit applications, it’s important that you receive an expert review of your design before you go to production. This greatly reduces your risk of errors and rework.
The use of flex circuits has increased as industry experts have recognized their three-dimensional configurations, greater vibration resistance, and manufacturing flexibility.
However, greater flexibility can sometimes mean greater risk of error which is why getting the design process right is so important.
The increased flexibility of flex circuits means that product designers have more options for the final design, flex circuit board placement, heat source locations, and the shape of the enclosure. These aren’t the only considerations for the product designer, some others are:
Green Circuits offers detailed reviews of your flex circuit designs to enable you to save on production time and costs. Building mock-ups will help you compare your designs and make the right choices for product development.
From automotive equipment to medical devices, bar code equipment, cameras, cellphones, avionics and satellites, flex circuit technology has the solution for you. However, determining your choice of conductor requires two fundamental structural applications.
Static Application
Typically used with the less expensive Electro Deposited (ED) copper, static application is also referred to as flex-to-install or flex-to-fit. With this application, circuits are flexed in order for them to be installed and fitted into its application.
Dynamic Flexing Application
Rolled Annealed (RA) copper is used for dynamic application and the circuit is flexed once the products are used. Flip-type cellphones, robotic arms, and laptops are used in this application.
