Precision Unveiled: Advanced Rigid-Flex PCB Production Techniques for Aerospace and Military Applications

Updated: May 23

In the landscape of electronic manufacturing, where exacting standards define aerospace and military applications, the significance of precision and reliability cannot be overstated. Rigid-Flex printed circuit boards stand as indispensable components, seamlessly merging flexibility and rigidity. Beyond mere plating techniques, this article explores the intricacies of Rigid-Flex production methods, unraveling the precision and innovation inherent in one of Flex PCB manufacturing processes. Focusing on key elements such as lead-tin alloys, robust plating in copper-plated via holes, and the application of lead-tin solder spray and hot air-leveling, we unveil the meticulous craftsmanship behind Flex PCBs tailored for the demands of Aerospace and Military Applications, exclusively from Flex Plus.


Lead-Tin Alloys in Rigid-Flex Production

Flexibility meets reliability with the use of lead-tin alloys in Rigid-Flex PCB. These alloys offer exceptional solderability, crucial for aerospace and military applications where secure connections are non-negotiable. The controlled alloy composition ensures a perfect balance between malleability and structural integrity, allowing Rigid-Flex PCBs to withstand the demanding conditions often encountered in aerospace and military environments.


Robust Plating in Copper-Plated Via Holes

In aerospace and military-grade Rigid-Flex PCBs, the integrity of every connection is paramount. The plating in copper-plated holes takes center stage, with a minimum thickness requirement of 25 microns (around 1 mil) or above. This robust plating ensures superior conductivity, resilience against different tough environmental factors, and longevity even in the harshest conditions. Each copper-plated via is meticulously crafted to meet or exceed aerospace and military specifications, guaranteeing unmatched reliability.
