Frontline PCB Solutions' InCAM Software Reaches a Record 1,500 Seats
October 25, 2017 | Frontline PCB SolutionsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Frontline PCB Solutions announced at the TPCA show that its InCAM preproduction CAM solution has achieved a record number of 1,500 seats worldwide. InCAM is now deployed at over 330 sites — over 60 relying exclusively on InCAM — and has thousands of certified operators using InCAM software to produce the majority of advanced designs powering mobile devices today.
“InCAM delivers tangible benefits which explain its success,” said Yovav Sameah, president, Frontline. “Most of the world’s advanced fabricators already rely on InCAM’s high-precision CAM tooling and advanced data integrity for robust production across all PCB industry segments. The launch of InCAM Flex in 2016 significantly expanded InCAM’s capabilities and penetration, and Frontline’s partnership with Mentor ensures compliance with the ODB++ data format. Frontline has pioneered innovative CAM solutions for over twenty years and remains focused on meeting the challenges of this fast-moving industry. “
