76 SMT007 MAGAZINE I JULY 2024
As the demand for advanced electronics continues to soar, investment in
the PCB sector is witnessing a remarkable uptick, with notable develop-
ments reshaping the landscape. Concurrently, the emergence of new local
PCB shops, defense contracts bolstering supply chain resilience, growth
projections across different regions in 2024, and the inflation outlook
collectively delineate the evolving panorama of PCB manufacturing.
I reached out to Arvind
Kumar to discuss his
keynote presentation
at the recent IMAPS
conference where he
discussed the AI hardware
ecosystem and role of advanced packaging.
Any new packages will require accurate and
reliable placement on the EMS manufacturing
floor. Arvind shares his perspective and some
predictions based on his research. It is also
clear there is still much coordination and
communication needed to make this work.
This strategic alliance underscores
AIM Solder's commitment to advancing
the electronics manufacturing industry
through collaboration and innovation.
