Hello all, just curious, are there any other suppliers of rigid, thin Polyimide material? Is it only Europe, or is it world wide so difficult to get small orders? I need often a material like G30/P95/Duraver PD, Thickness 0.8 mm, 35 um copper for very small burn-in boards - rather price sensitive, because are throw-away-boards after thermal cycling. My very first supplier, Allied Signal (P95) died here in Europe and the isola Duraver PD (or what ever the name is now) is not good available here. They want a minimum order of 100 panels and they wait with production til they have collected orders of at least 200 panels - I can forget my delivery schedules... :-( Meanwhile, I use Arlon 35N, it is more expensive, but available for smaller orders, too. I need about 5 panels per year and must order "only" about 10 panels minimum, not 100 like above mentioned. ----------------------------------------------- Matthias Mansfeld Elektronik * Printed Circuit Board Design and Assembly Am Langhoelzl 11, D-85540 Haar, GERMANY Phone: +49-89-4620 0937, Fax: +49-89-4620 0938 E-Mail: [log in to unmask] Internet: http://www.mansfeld-elektronik.de ############################################################## TechNet Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8c ############################################################## To subscribe/unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the body: To subscribe: SUBSCRIBE TECHNET <your full name> To unsubscribe: SIGNOFF TECHNET ############################################################## Please visit IPC web site (http://www.ipc.org/html/forum.htm) for additional information.
