Maximum layer count for rigid-flex?

24 layers (12 rigid + 12 flex).

Lead time for 10-layer prototype?

15 days standard|10-day expedited.

Do you provide fold pattern design support?

Free mechanical simulation with 3D models.

Flex PCB prototype lead time?

48-72 hours standard. Custom stack-ups or finishes may extend timelines.

Do you make rigid-flex boards?

Yes. We produce hybrid rigid-flex structures with FR-4 stiffeners.

Accepted file formats?
