In three specific segments: Double Sided, Multi Layer, and HDI, IPC reported the following trends:Double Sided: down 5% , MultiLayer: down 4%, HDI: up 18%Consistent with our view, the HDI segment remains our most active growth area in North American manufacturing. As new .4mm chip sets and the industry demand for increased signal speed grows, the demands for future designs moving to the HDI parameters seems eminent. APCT has experienced a 60% growth in demand and we expect that trend to continue.Positioning our company to support this demand was a vision my team shared back in early 2013. With $2.8m of investments in new equipment sets specifically designed to support the HDI market, APCT Inc. has fortified out industry leading position in HDI engineering support and manufacturing excellence.We offer best in class standard lead time support and industry leading quick turn capabilities. As HDI becomes a need, APCT becomes your solution.
