To enrich students’ knowledge and interest of the PCB
industry, HKPCA and Hong Kong Polytechnic University jointly
organized the first Factory Visit on June 5, 2008. There were over
20 professors and students visited Multek Zhuhai Factory. We hereby
would like to thank Multek for its generous hosting and great
support.
On that day, we took off at 8:30 from
HK by Ferry and Multek arranged the shuttle bus to bring us
directly to the factory. After arrival, Ms Ivy Wong, Senior Vice
President of Multek Hong Kong Ltd and Chairman of HKPCA
Publications Subcommittee delivered a brief and concise
presentation. Then, we divided into 3 groups and started the first
stop of visit - the manufacturing process of mobile phone PCB board
and the Flex / Flex-rigid PCB board. After a light lunch, we
visited another production section – the base station PCB board
which consists of big panels and with high-layer count. After the whole day trip, students
gained more understanding of the PCB industry. Most of them
indicated great interest in this industry. Professors also
expressed their appreciation of arranging this event because such
activity increased students’ understanding of the actual practical
workplace. They hoped that similar activity could be arranged to
add practical elements to complement their academic knowledge.
