Oki Electric Cable Succeeds in Developing Ultra Thin, Highly Flexible Printed Circuits
- Achieves FPCs three times more flexible, enabling to fold like Origami - [Reference]
Sales plan
- Start of sales: June 1, 2007
- Sales target: 20,000 cables/ month (at-mass-production stage)
- Sales price: varies with size, specifications and volume
Major features
- Ultra thin: thickness min.30µm (one-side FPC)
- Flexible: over 60million times at IPC Flexibility testing (Bending radius: 3mm)
- Fold: R=0 folding enabled (R is the thickness of FPC itself)
- Conformity: readily conform to non-flat surfaces
- Low resistance to keep bending and folding form
