Winonics, a prominent player in the microelectronics sector, has made significant waves by challenging established industry giants. At the heart of the firm’s philosophy in the printed circuit board (PCB) industry lies a strong focus on innovation and adaptability. Backed by the prowess of Additive Circuits Technologies (ACT) since 2020, Winonics has redefined the standards for quick turnaround and custom solutions in PCB manufacturing.

“Winonics is the alternative to larger corporations, offering unparalleled flexibility and adaptability. By virtue of our small yet adaptable operations, we deliver quick turnaround times, which are usually three, five, or seven days,” says Richeal Klepach, Sales Manager at Winonics.

The firm’s investment in state-of-the-art equipment over the past few years has enhanced its capabilities, positioning it as a reliable ally in the industry. Winonics, now under ACT’s wing, specializes as a comprehensive provider of advanced PCBs. ACT’s expertise in developing unique solutions for ultra-high-density interconnect (UHDI) circuits has bolstered Winonics’ capabilities. These flexible PCBs are utilized across diverse sectors, including aerospace, defense, and industrial instrumentation. Winonics excels in offering design for manufacturability (DFM) services, which combine engineering finesse with industry-leading turnaround times for various PCBs like rigid, rigid-flex and flex. Its expertise in UHDI circuitry effectively tackles the complexities of miniaturization. The firm is gradually expanding its capabilities from a 25-micron scale to an ambitious 12-and-a-half-micron.

The collaboration between Winonics and ACT has led to the development of its proprietary Additive Circuit Technology System (ACTS)—a patented, semi-additive and modified semi-additive process that is an innovative response to the UHDI market demands.

ACTS modified semi-additive process (mSAP) is a simpler, cost-effective, and less process-intensive alternative to the traditional etch process. Winonics uses this method to develop products based on specific requirements, operating as a custom manufacturing board shop, and allowing them to manufacture boards faster, easier, and efficiently. Adhering to a customer-centric approach, Winonics takes customers’ designs or fabs as the core and collaborates to refine them. This may entail material changes or adjustments to enhance the product’s adaptability and cost-effectiveness and ensure effective product realization.

Winonics plays a pivotal role in guiding clients through this intricate process. Its dedicated research and development teams provide comprehensive support, ensuring that various client requirements are met. Predominantly serving the aerospace and defense sectors, Winonics has carved out a position for itself by providing cutting-edge engineering solutions and advanced processing capabilities. Product applications include Radio Frequency through Millimeter Wave transmissions, Ultra-High-Density Interconnects to support ultra-fine pitch BGA devices, Waveguide structures, and planar and non-planar Antennas.

The firm’s success in developing these advanced, innovative products is underpinned by its team of highly experienced professionals with a combined industrial experience of over 140 years. This seasoned team brings a profound knowledge of diverse low-loss and high-speed laminate materials, making sure that boards adhere to industry standards. This expertise also ensures that products meet the highest quality, performance, and reliability standards in practical applications, laying the groundwork for addressing R&D challenges and crafting customized solutions.

From the management team to the machine operators, every company member shares a deep commitment to developing high-quality products and fostering high-yield operations.

Winonics’ commitment to customer service is evident in its industry-leading response times, which provide round-the-clock support throughout the product realization and manufacturing process. Open lines of communication are maintained as a fundamental aspect of its customer engagement strategies. Inquiries and requests are promptly addressed, emphasizing the firm’s focus on delivering best in class customer service and satisfaction.

Manufacturing PCBs for over five decades now, Winonics, along with Additive Circuits Technologies, has established a proud legacy of exceptional service, innovative solutions with no boundaries enabling them to deliver on-time quality PCBs. As the microelectronics industry moves towards an era marked by increasing investments, a shift to advanced technology nodes, and the rise of contemporary technologies, this rich history and ongoing pursuit of technological excellence will ensure that Winonics remains a reliable partner in transforming novel ideas into realities.
