These trends are driving the need for more sophisticated and robust PCBs capable of handling higher power loads and more complex functionalities. Innovative technologies such as flexible PCBs, multi-layer PCBs, IMS, and HDI PCBs offer space-saving advantages and improved performance, making them ideal for the compact and complex electronic environments of today's automobiles. 💡 The automotive industry is also increasingly focusing on sustainability, with initiatives aimed at recycling and reusing PCB materials. Sustainable practices in PCB manufacturing include recycling programs, eco-friendly materials, energy-efficient manufacturing, and carbon footprint management. 🌍 With copperdot, you benefit from Bosch's extensive experience, commitment to quality, and robust supply chain network. 🤝 Learn more about the future of automotive PCBs and how copperdot can support your needs in our comprehensive article: https://lnkd.in/efWwME2h #copperdot #Bosch #PCB #PCBProcurement #Innovation

𝗨𝗹𝘁𝗿𝗮-𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁. 𝗣𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲. 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗿𝘆. Those are the buzzwords that Simon Hiller likes to describe the spirit of copperdot. In November he joined our team as Head of Product Area Electronics and Beyond. Want to learn more about Simon? Then keep reading 👇 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼 𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻?  I’m responsible for the Electronics division of copperdot where we are selling Bosch access and obsolete Electronics parts to the market. In the area “Beyond” we are exploring new business models based on market demands that fit our vision. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗽𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗽?  It motivates me to be responsible for driving the success of copperdot as part of the leadership team. I also like the high degree of freedom that comes with copperdot’s working environment and of course I enjoy collaborating with inspiring colleagues. 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲, 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗕𝗼𝘀𝗰𝗵 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘀?  Working at a corporate start-up is so much different from the experience I had in my previous positions. Firstly, it all starts with the people: highly motivated and passionate players who treat copperdot as “their” baby. Secondly, our business processes are similar to anywhere else in Bosch, but we are playing in another league with regards to speed. One perfect example: From the first meeting to a deal by handshake with a new supplier, it took us only one month. Thirdly, every team member knows the implications of revenue growth and margin and acts as an entrepreneur. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲? In my opinion, 3 factors are essential: 🌬️ Dealing with uncertainty and stormy weather – we need to fail often and early to learn and adapt to ever-changing situations quickly. 💚 Leading and developing the team – based on empathy and trust, we as leaders in today’s fast-paced environment need to ensure everyone can be the best version of themselves. 👂Listening to our customers – strengthening current business models and exploring new ones by paying close attention to the market is crucial. You might find ways to make a living where you do not yet expect it. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝘂𝗻𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗮 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗮𝘆? When I finish work, I love to sit down with my kids to play or go for a hilly run around Stuttgart to reset my mind. We're looking forward to working with Simon and wish him a great start 👏 #copperdot #Bosch #LikeABosch #team #leadership

🚗 Navigating the challenges and requirements for automotive PCBs: Ensuring electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is crucial for the seamless operation of electronic systems within vehicles. Compliance with EMC standards prevents electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring that electronic systems can function harmoniously without disrupting each other. 📡 Selecting the right materials for automotive PCBs involves considerations like temperature resilience, moisture resistance, thermal conductivity, and mechanical strength. Compliance with environmental regulations, such as the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS), is essential for safety and sustainability. ♻️ Automotive PCBs undergo extensive testing to simulate real-world conditions, including thermal cycling, thermal shock, and vibration testing. ➡️ These rigorous testing protocols are vital for ensuring the long-term reliability and resilience of PCBs in demanding automotive environments. 💪 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗣𝗖𝗕𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗹𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗼𝘁 𝘄𝗲𝗯𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗲: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/efWwME2h #copperdot #Bosch #PCB #PCBProcurement #Innovation

PCBs are essential in many areas of (electric) vehicles, powering safety systems, onboard chargers, battery management systems, lighting, communication modules, and advanced driver-assistance systems. 🛠️ Automotive PCBs must meet stringent standards to ensure safety and reliability, such as ISO 26262, IPC-6012DA, AEC-Q100 to AEC-Q200, IATF 16949, and VDA 6.3. Adherence to these standards ensures PCBs meet industry benchmarks for safety, reliability, and consistent performance. ✅ However, automotive environments subject PCBs to extreme conditions, including temperature fluctuations, vibrations, and shocks. To withstand these challenges, PCBs must be made from materials with high thermal conductivity and low moisture absorption. 🌡️ 🤔 𝗪𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗣𝗖𝗕𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘆? 👉 Read our full article on the copperdot website: https://lnkd.in/efWwME2h #copperdot #Bosch #PCB #PCBProcurement #Innovation

🧭 Navigating logistics and supply chain management in PCB procurement: When it comes to the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of PCBs, logistics and supply chain management play a crucial role. Shipping, handling, and warehousing fees can vary greatly depending on the manufacturer's location and the efficiency of their operations. 📦 Moreover, the time and effort required to find, evaluate, and manage the right PCB manufacturers can be a significant hidden cost. Audits, qualifications, quality control, and problem-solving visits all contribute to the overall expense. "Selecting the best-fit manufacturer is already a form of cost reduction," asserts Hamza Bilgen, Head of Sales & Marketing. "With copperdot, we fully utilize our extensive supplier network to effectively match each project with the most suitable manufacturer. This ensures you're not compromising on quality, lead times, or cost-efficiency." 🤝 Discover how copperdot can help you optimize your PCB procurement logistics and supply chain management in our latest article: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eaNSFMHj #copperdot #Bosch #PCB #PCBProcurement #Innovation
