As a PCB fabricator I think you need to develop in-house material properties expertise. Your competitors who understand the materials they use and their process limits are positioned to get higher yield percentages at lower cost because of their knowledge. I appreciate that you don't want to spend unnecessary money, but at least spend the time to learn about what you are using. I am troubled that your engineer knows so little about the materials you use that he is surprised by common results. Once your company understands materials better you may well appreciate the value of commercial stack-up planning software. Steve.
