Questionaire

Quest. 1: Have you already optimised your chemical treatment stages with regard to material efficiency and, if necessary, checked the opportunities for re-utilisation of process materials? help

This question concerns the following

The main chemical treatment steps in circuit board manufacture are the plated-through hole, the electroplating and etching processes.

yes, we avoid and reduce unnecessary material consumption, and use technologies that enable recovery of materials in all the relevant areas of our production
our process technology is based on closed-loop material cycles
our wastes are processed by third parties
no recovery techniques are used in our production

Quest. 2: Do you know of measures for enhancing resource efficiency in drilling? help

This question concerns the following

The drilling requires high precision, since drilling pattern and image of the conductor geometry must be mapped precisely. Are the processes already here, in one of the first steps in the process PCB production, optimally designed, the rejection rate can be reduced and resource efficiency can be increased.

yes, and the quality test of the drilled printed circuit boards provides evidence of the high level of precision in drilling
yes, a drilling management is brought into action
no
not applicable

Quest. 3: Are you working towards continuously reducing the energy consumption in the manufacture of printed circuit boards?

This question concerns the following

yes
no, but we know all about our energy consumption
no

Quest. 4: Are employees involved in process improvements? How are process optimisations been accepted and implemented?

This question concerns the following

there are regular employee training sessions which also provide the opportunity to exchange findings
the employees always have the option to suggest ideas for process optimizations
meetings covering product or process changes take place
there is no cross-departmental exchange of views

Quest. 5: Are the facilities for material savings which arise due to tool optimisations during a construction phase already in use?

This question concerns the following

yes, the reduction in the requirement of copper and the necessary process chemicals is very critical in the manufacture of printed circuit boards
we only focus on implementing the properties of the printed circuit boards as defined in the specifications.
not applicable
