Abstract
A new technology has been developed which allows design engineers to quickly and affordably make flex circuit prototypes. Designed to operate in an engineering lab environment. this flex circuit manufacturing technology is completely self contained, requires no special ventilation or plumbing, and sits on top of a lab bench. This system requires no phototools and is capable of imaging 6 mil lines on copper clad polyimide, mylar, polyester, duroid, and FR4. This paper explores this new flex circuit technology
