What Are E-Cigarettes? E-cigarettes, also known as vapes or electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS), are battery-powered devices that heat a liquid solution (usually containing nicotine) to create an aerosol that the user inhales. They were first introduced in the mid-2000s as a less harmful alternative to traditional combustible cigarettes. The […]

What is Coverlay Adhesive Squeezeout? Coverlay adhesive squeezeout is a common issue encountered in the manufacturing of flexible printed circuits (FPCs). It occurs when excess adhesive material protrudes from the edges of the coverlay film during the lamination process. This phenomenon can lead to various problems, such as poor aesthetics, […]
