Our controlled, step-by-step manufacturing process ensures precision and reliability.

  1. Ceramic Substrate Preparation: High-purity ceramic blanks are precision ground and polished to achieve the required surface finish.
  2. Seed Layer Deposition: A thin, uniform adhesion layer is applied via sputtering.
  3. Patterned Copper Plating: Copper is electroplated to precise thicknesses through a photoresist mask that defines your custom circuit pattern.
  4. Final Etching & Finishing: The resist is removed, and the substrate undergoes final cleaning and surface treatment.
  5. Comprehensive QC: Each substrate undergoes 100% electrical testing, automated optical inspection (AOI), and dimensional verification before shipment.

This meticulous process, informed by our extensive experience in producing Electronic Packaging solutions, guarantees a substrate that performs as promised in your most demanding thin film applications.
