EMS - Comprehensive Contracting Services

Our company has further improved the technology for forming high-density wiring in our core business of electronic substrates, specifically in flexible printed circuit boards (FPCs). In recent years, electronic devices such as medical equipment and industrial machinery have been advancing in miniaturization and lightweight design. To incorporate many functions into limited space, there is a demand for increased wiring density on the substrate. Therefore, we have been working on establishing filled via technology and improving the M-SAP method. The filled via structure involves filling vias (holes) made by laser in the insulating layer with copper plating, ensuring electrical connections on both sides of the substrate while reducing the recesses of the vias, which allows for component mounting on the vias and leads to high-density mounting. On the other hand, the M-SAP method significantly improves line width management by laminating copper to form circuits, enabling high-density wiring. This time, based on the pattern via fill method that leverages these characteristics, we successfully formed wiring with a pitch of 30μm on a double-sided substrate with a filled via structure. We will continue to aim for further improvements in high-density wiring formation technology through ongoing development, prototyping, and verification.

Our company has decided to participate in the "Space Town Development Promotion Project (Kii Space HUB)," which aims to create new industries and revitalize the region with a space theme, promoted by Wakayama Prefecture, in our core business of electronic substrate. Taking this opportunity, we will actively advance our technological development and business enhancement in the space field. The Space Town Development Promotion Project is a project aimed at the accumulation of the space industry, human resource development, and regional revitalization in Wakayama Prefecture, where the private rocket launch site "Spaceport Kii" is located, and it has garnered national attention. We aim to contribute to the lightweight and high functionality of space equipment by leveraging the manufacturing technologies of flexible printed circuit boards and electroforming that we have cultivated so far. In the future, we will actively engage in human resource development for those involved in the space business, starting with the provision of technology for satellite-mounted equipment and communication modules. We will also consider collaboration with private space companies, promoting value creation and business development in this new field of the space industry, while striving to balance technological innovation and social contribution, and continuing our challenges toward realizing a sustainable future.
