OVERVIEW
|
| For Lamination of Rigid Multilayer and Flexible
Circuits
PACO•PRESS™ “Green” Pad is an environmentally-friendly,
multi-use Press Pad, specifically engineered
to improve the high-pressure Lamination Process of Rigid Multilayer, Flexible
Coverlayer Printed Circuit
Boards, and other like applications. As such, PACO•PRESS is an economical,
non-stick alternative to
“
Blue” and “Brown” Kraft Paper, offering superior performance
while reducing materials costs
significantly.
PACO•PRESS serves three critical Functions: to accurately Control
Heat Input; to Equalize Pressure
Application; and to Reduce Cost. |

Comparative
PRESSPROBE Pressure Profiles
Brown Kraft Paper [6X] vs. Blue Pad [3X] vs. PACO•PRESS “Green” Pad
[3X]. Tests were performed on Panel at 28 gms./cm2 [400 p.s.i.].

Using
the PRESSPROBE Test, the more uniform the "red" color
is across the panel surface, the more uniform is the applied pressure. |

ADVANTAGES
|
|
- Control
of Heat Rise & Process Flexibility
PACO•PRESS controls Heat Input with predictable and repeatable
results due to its uniform
Fiber Formation, tightly controlled Thickness, Weight, and Moisture specifications.
Multiple
sheets can be used and reused in build-up to reach Heat Rise Specifications.
- Equalization
of Pressure throughout the Lamination Book
Use of PACO•PRESS eliminates Lamination Measles, Inner-layer
Slippage and “white” Corners
or Edges. PACO•PRESS enables tight Dielectric Thickness Control
and reduces Image and
Glass-cloth Transfer into the Copper Foil, as well as low-pressure
Prepreg Blisters.
- Cost Effective
PACO•PRESS is engineered to withstand four [4] Lamination Press
Cycles, while offering
superior Heat and Pressure Control. The result: significant Cost Savings.

- Optimized thickness
of 0.68mm [0.027”] to allow micro-adjustment
of Heat Input and to allow rotating new and re-used PACO•PRESS
sheets in the Lamination Book.
- Engineered weight of 350 gms/M2 [215
lbs./3000 sq. ft.] and lower density to give ample Z-axis compression resulting in improved overall surface Pressure
Equalization.
- Proprietary release technology assures NO sticking to
Steel Separator Plates.
- High Temperature
resistance of 246°C [475°F].
- Low Moisture
Content to reduce liquid build-up in vacuum systems and to minimize
Thermal change when re-used.
- Low fiber Dusting and Contamination.
- No resin, binders, or fillers,
essentially sulfur free, with reduced odor and no solvents to attack
vacuum systems.
- Environmentally Friendly - suitable for re-pulping,
landfill disposal or incineration.

PACO•PRESS is
an advanced, cellulosic-based product, engineered specifically to meet
the performance
requirements of both Rigid Multilayer, and Flexible Printed Circuit Board
manufacture. PACO•PRESS is
manufactured to PCB industry standards, using virgin fibers guaranteeing
a consistent density and even
profile across the entire area of the sheet.
PACO•PRESS is superior to commodity “Blue” and “Brown” Kraft
papers because it is engineered and
tightly-controlled to maintain Thickness and Weight relationships, to eliminate
Contaminants, to keep
Moisture low, and to provide Non-Stick performance, run-after-run.
