What is Film Artwork
Film artwork refers to a positive or negative piece of film that contains a circuit, solder mask, or nomenclature pattern. It serves as an element in the transfer of artwork process, where the PCB schema is printed onto one or more films. These films play a significant role in the creation of actual boards, with each physical component of the PCB having its own dedicated film.
Film artwork adds stability and longevity to delicate electronic circuit board artwork. It acts as a protective layer, shielding the artwork from potential damage caused by scratches and chemical exposure from LPI inks and chemical solutions. Despite its protective function, Film artwork allows for the transmission of light, ensuring high resolution and image accuracy in the PCB manufacturing process.
Film artwork offers several benefits, including high resolution, image accuracy, and consistent laminating results. It provides a compact and clean solution, contributing to the overall quality and reliability of PCB production. These films can be used with laminators or existing laminating equipment, making them versatile and adaptable to different manufacturing setups.
