Check a static screening benchmark. Identify designs that need further engineering review.
Open calculator ↗Flex PCB engineering tools
Record the assumptions before turning a planning result into a production requirement.
ENGINEERING WORKBENCH
Turn questions into
design decisions.
Explore a construction before you send files. Every result shows its assumptions and the next question to take to your fabricator.
Stackup builder
See copper, dielectric and coverlay layers. Separate flex thickness from local reinforcement.
Build a stackup ↗Material selector
Build a material shortlist around motion, temperature, budget and signal requirements.
Compare materials ↗Cost estimator
Explore an illustrative budget range. Carry your build parameters into the quote brief.
Estimate a budget ↗How much room does your bend need?
Use finished thickness in the flexible bending region, including coverlays and adhesives.
Uses published Minco static screening ratios, not an IPC-2223 calculation. Confirm the applicable IPC design requirements and final bend geometry with your fabricator.
Make each layer visible.
Nominal material thicknesses in micrometres (µm).
Find a starting material system.
A shortlist for discussion with your fabricator, subject to specific grade data.
Build a budget, then validate it.
Estimate only. Demonstration parameters are not live supplier pricing. Bare boards only; excludes assembly, freight, tax and duties.
YOUR NEXT STEP
Bring the requirements.
Start the conversation.
Tell us what the circuit needs to do, how it will bend and when you need it. A complete build brief makes a quote easier to evaluate.
Preparing files?
Include Gerber and drill data, a fabrication drawing and stackup notes. Put related files in one ZIP. Add a BOM and placement file when assembly is required.
