Paul,
Somehow I missed the original question regarding manufacturers.  We
manufacture everything from single-sided to 20+ layer Military multilayers
including high layer count rigid-flex.  We have MIL approval to MIL-PRF-55110
for FR4 rigid (GF), Polyimide rigid (GI),  Polyimide Thermount (BI), Epoxy
Thermount (BF), and adhesive and adhesiveless Rigid-Flex to MIL-P-50884.  We
also do buried/blind vias, metal core boards, heatsinks, impedance control,
Teflon ...did I miss anything?  With the markets we deal with it is
imperative that we talk intensely with most of our customers.  We firmly
believe in the concurrent engineering philosophy.  There is an added value
here for the customers that are willing, that should demand, the
manufacturers have open dialogue with them.  You are correct though that this
is not as common as it should be and there are still some out there who just
say make whatever I design.  I wish I had more time to comment on this forum
and will do my best to answer any direct questions.  I can also be reached at

<< Well

 So far we have managed to obtain about 5 replies from PCB manufacturers out
 of how may thousands worldwide

 Can anyone suggest a way of getting them involved ?

 Surely its about time that the people that use PCB,s( PWB,s) started talking
 to the people that make them!

 I used to be a specialty chemical supplier to the PCB industry in the UK and
 realized a long time ago that users of pcbs don't talk to the manufacturers,
 they send them a design and that's it
 The problem is users don't often understand the processes involved in
 manufacture

 Any comments
