Product Detail

Rigid Flex PCB Boards Prototyping are different from the original FPC and PCB in material, equipment and process. In terms of materials, the material of the rigid board is the FR4 material of the PCB, the material of the flexible board is the material of PI or PET, the two materials have joints, and the thermal compression shrinkage rate is different.

Applications

The rigid-flex board applies application areas cover all the application areas of FPC and rigid PCB. Such as: Mobile phone, Computer and LCD screen, Motherboard and display screen, NOTEBOOK ,Car, etc.

Why use rigid-flex boards?

First, reliability: the flexible and rigid board can solve the installation reliability problem of FPC.

The connection of the FPC through the connector brings installation costs, inconvenient installation, installation reliability problems, and at the same time, it is easy to short circuit, fall off and other problems. In the design of a certain mass-delivered barrel machine from Hikvision, we saw the phenomenon of repairing the FPC and the PCB after the FPC was installed. The rigid-flex board solves the problem of FPC installation reliability.

Second, the comprehensive cost:

The rigid-flex board saves the cost of the connector, reduces the installation time, reduces the repair rate, reduces the repair rate, and improves the productivity and reliability. The use of mass-delivered products is often effective in reducing costs.

Third, effectively improve the signal quality

Since connections are not made through connectors, trace continuity is better and signal integrity is better. Traditional IPC uses FPC and connectors to connect the Sensor (video sensor) board and the main control board.

The main control board and the sensor board can be integrated by using the soft and hard combination board, which solves many problems and also meets the structural design requirements of the barrel machine.
