Hans,

        Did you check the test method?  Could there be 11 plies instead of 10,
or was the prepreg style 2116 instead of 2113?

| Hello Cyber junkies!
|
| They just put me in charge of our Drill operation and I have my first
| question.
|
| Our Scale Flow Test for a lot of PGFK 2113 gave us an average thickness of
| 3.9 mils instead of the expected 3.5 mils.
|
| What does this mean?
|
| I'm guessing the prepreg either didn't flow enough or gelled to quickly.
|
| I need to figure out if the material is still good or if we just need to
| tweak the board stackup so we don't exceed max tolerance.
|
| Thanks!
|
| Hansie
