Beyond the Board: Diversification as Strategy

07/22/2026 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007 Magazine
Are the days of simply building boards and shipping them out the door coming to an end? For PCB fabricators and electronics manufacturers alike, diversification is moving from a growth strategy to one of survival. Supply chain disruptions, geopolitical uncertainty, tariff fluctuations, and accelerating technology cycles are forcing companies to rethink how they create value for customers. At Flexible Circuit Technologies (FCT), that has meant expanding beyond world-class flex circuit manufacturing into assembly, vertical integration, and a growing global footprint.

Learning With Leo: Soldering—The Interpretation Problem

06/30/2026 | Leo Lambert -- Column: Learning With Leo
At EPTAC, we operate the largest electronics training facility in the United States, and that gives us a vantage point few others have. I’ve spent most of my career on the training floor and in the rooms where IPC standards get written and revised.

Standard of Excellence: Building Excellence From the Inside Out

05/27/2026 | Anaya Vardya -- Column: Standard of Excellence
You can’t have a world-class product without a world-class mindset. Every layer, lot, and customer success begins long before a board hits the lamination press or the AOI line. It begins with how people think, care, and take ownership of their work. Culture, in the truest sense, is process control. It governs consistency, integrity, and pride as surely as SPC charts and traveler sheets. If the culture isn’t right, neither will the product be.
