LASER DIRECT STRUCTURING (LPKF LDS PROCEDURE)
We offer laser direct structuring (LPKF-LDS process) for the production of 3D-MID (so-called three-dimensional circuit carriers) as a service in Magdeburg. 3D-MID stands for Mechatronic Integrated Device (or Molded Interconnected Devices). The MID technology makes it possible to use three-dimensional plastic parts as circuit carriers for electronic or mechatronic assemblies. The LPKF-LDS process is one of the technologically leading and at the same time most economically interesting process for the production of 3D-MID. The LPKF LDS process represents the central process step. The process was developed and patented by the company LPKF Laser & Electronics AG in Hanover. In laser direct structuring, special LDS additives contained in the plastic are exposed and thus activated. These additives serve in the subsequent process step, the chemical metallization as a seedling for copper particles. In this way, a first conductive layer is formed, which can be amplified in further metallization processes, or supplemented with other metals (e.g., nickel, gold). Following the metallization equivalent to the circuit board electrical components can be equipped. The result is a three-dimensional circuit carrier that, in addition to more freedom in design, also enables cost advantages and a higher functional density. TEPROSA offers you all process steps of the MID technology as a complete supplier and one of the few in Germany for the LPKF-LDS procedure Authorized Manufacturer.
