Flexible Circuits

Flexible circuitry reduces the size and weight of a finished product. It allows increased circuit density and eliminates bulky connections and wiring. And the added ability to fold the circuit expands the boundaries of design and packaging.

Multek Flexible Circuits is on the leading edge of flexible circuit technology and able to meet the strict requirements of electronic device manufacturers: high volume, cost, quality and reliability. With over 40 years of flexible circuit experience, Multek is a global leader in flexible circuit development and delivery. On the foundation of our Sheldahl Technical Materials business unit, we uniquely offer vertical integration to rapidly tailor our laminate and cover film material to meet the specific requirements of our customers.

Multek Flexible Circuits is a high-volume flexible circuit manufacturer processing almost 20 million square feet of single and double-sided circuits annually. Multek's technology is based on low cost, high volume, reel-to-reel fabrication processes and techniques. Circuits can be designed in configurations from simple, single-sided conductive paths to complex high density three-dimensional assemblies. Multek utilizes a variety of fabrication materials from low cost polyester to mid range PEN to high density adhesiveless polyimide Novaclad supplied by our Sheldahl Technical Materials business.

Multek's vertical integration and design expertise begins with raw material fabrication, extends through circuit manufacturing, and ends with value-added assembly. Multek 's high volume capability in both materials technology and flexible circuit production, coupled with our component assembly facilities gives our customers a cost advantage others cannot match.
