18 Layer Rigid-Flex PCB with 12 Layer Flex PCB with Air Gap

Rigiflex is known for creating flawless flexible printed circuit boards in par with the requirements of several industries. So far, we have handled hundreds of thousands of PCB projects, and is capable to take your application from concept to production. We are committed to delivering time-critical and high performance flexible circuit boards, whilst maintaining good flex-circuit stability and lifespan. Our range of 18 layer rigid-flex PCB with 12 layer flex PCBs with air gaps is also the result of expert designing and manufacturing excellence. Rigiflex boasts several years of experience in developing these reliable flexible circuit boards for applications in automotive, medical, industrial, aerospace, military, and telecommunications, among several others.

There existed a high chance of dielectric breakdown in multilayered, high voltage PCBs, which was a headache for the PCB manufacturers worldwide. Rigiflex, with its engineering experience and expertise, has designed 18 layered rigid flex PCBs with air gaps, and thus tackled the issue. These rigid flex printed circuit boards are designed with a minimum clearance distance between the air gaps. We strictly ensure that that the air gap is not less than 10 mm. This helps to prevent any type of dielectric breakdown in the PCB. The air gaps act as reinforced insulation between PCB components, preventing any kind of hazardous voltage. The gaps also help to prevent the accumulation of dust or dirt on the PCB surface, whilst helping maintain the service life of the PCB.

At Rigiflex, 18 layer rigid-flex PCB with 12 layer flex PCBs are produced in a wide range of board materials. A few amongst them include FR4 (Tg – 135C, 145C, 170C), Rogers Ultralam 2000, Polyimide, Teflon, Black FR4, Arlon AR350, Getek Copper Clad Thermal Substrates, and Hybrid (Rogers and FR4) BT Epoxy. Also, we use Thermo Set and PSA Based Aluminum, FR4, Stainless Steel, and Polymide stiffeners. Solder mask colors such as green/green, matte white, black/black, matte clear, blue top and bottom mix, and red one or both sides mix are used in assembling18 layer rigid-flex PCB with 12 layer flex PCBs.

At Rigiflex, we possess capabilities in assembling PCBs with blind and buried vias, plated slots specified dielectric, tented vias controlled impedance, solder mask plugged vias, via caps (solder mask), and conductive filled vias. Since all the PCBs are vacuum packed in plastic bags before shipping, they will reach safely at the customers’ doorsteps without any damage during the transit.
