Beta LAYOUT

Events
Prototype PCB manufacture, Beta LAYOUT, has continued from strength to strength following its arrival in South Africa. The company recently announced the introduction of a new high-speed drilling system. The MX1 single station system from the German manufacturer Schmoll Maschinen is a high-tech CNC drilling machine which includes CCD technology for inner-layer registration, and can also route both standard PCBs, IMS (insulated metal substrate) circuits and aluminium front panels. Intricate commands such as engraving, countersink, tap drilling and control depth milling are also possible on this state of the art machine.
Another recent development from Beta LAYOUT SA is the announcement that it has added electroless nickel immersion gold (ENIG) to its list of surface finishes.
Being the pioneer of online printed circuit board ordering, and developing the original PCB-POOL concept, has raised the company’s reputation as being a leading PCB prototype manufacturer. Offering instant online quotations, customers receive professionally manufactured prototypes at discounted prices, live online order tracking and live online customer support.
With no minimum quantity requirement, no tooling and setup charges, and full design rule checks included on all orders, PCB-POOL offers lead times from three to eight working days. The company also offers free stencils with every prototype order placed via the website.
Other products available from the Beta group include laser stencils, front panels, reflow kits, 3D modelling and various electronic tools and kits.
The company can be found on stand F3.
