Dear PCBWay Support Team,
I am interested in manufacturing a custom printed circuit board (PCB) with a thickness of 6-8mm and would like to clarify the feasibility and requirements for such a project.
Your website indicates that PCBs up to 8mm thick can be produced, but as this exceeds standard thicknesses, I would appreciate further details on the following:
Layer Configuration: Can a 6-8mm thickness be achieved using standard FR-4 material with a 2-4 layer configuration? If so, does this require adjusting the core/prepreg thicknesses, or are additional materials or processes necessary?
Design Constraints: Are there specific design requirements (e.g., minimum trace width, spacing, via specifications, or copper weight) that must be adhered to for thicker PCBs?
Material Limitations: Is standard FR-4 suitable for a 6-8mm board, or are alternative substrates recommended for mechanical or thermal stability?
This PCB is intended for a specialized application, and clarity on the above points will help ensure the design aligns with your manufacturing capabilities.
Thank you for your time and expertise. I look forward to your guidance.
