About cicotron
cicotron GmbH, based in Hohenthann (Bavaria), is a service company founded in 1993 that specializes in printed circuit boards (PCB). Its portfolio covers end-to-end PCB competence: PCB design and electronics design (schematic creation, library creation, multilayer, HDI and flex/rigid-flex layouts), CAE/CAM processing, and the creation of manufacturing data and documentation. In addition, the company coordinates PCB manufacturing – from 2-layer plated-through boards to multilayer and HDI StackedVia/SBU as well as rigid-flex, flex, metal-core and thick-copper PCBs – through a partner network, and upon request organizes assembly (turn-key assembly, box build). The materials used are FR-4 and polyimide (PI); board sizes up to 24 x 18 inches, thicknesses of 0.1–6 mm and up to 24 layers are possible. With seven employees and more than 20 years of experience in PCB design and production, cicotron serves customers from the electronics industry across Europe.
