FORTEXBOARD is a high quality pre-sensitised laminate, ideal for producing small numbers of printed circuit boards (PCB’s) for use by Design Engineers or for work in the classroom or laboratory. Its key benefits are that it enables the manufacturing process to be fast and consistent for both single and double sided boards using a positive artwork.

All materials used in the manufacture of FORTEXBOARD are high quality. This, together with our technical expertise and stringent manufacturing controls, ensures the high standard of every product which is delivered to our customer.

FORTEXBOARD is coated with a positive working photo resist which is inherently capable of reducing defects caused by dust and dirt on the photo tool and exposure unit . The unexposed photo resist remains hard after exposure to form the image or circuit pattern and remains unaffected by the developing process.

The unexposed resist is blue/green in colour and when exposed will go to a lighter shade , this change can be seen in daylight.

The board’s final coat is a low tack black film which affords mechanical and light protection and thus allows the board prior to removal of this film to be handled in daylight.

This high quality, pre-sensitised laminate is ideal for producing small number of printed circuit boards (PCB’s) suitable for design, classroom or laboratory use. Key benefits of this system is that themanufacturing process is fast and consistent for both single and double-sided boards.
