JTC-AM is a proprietary copper with high tensile strength and high elongation with superior handling capability.
Copper is the conductive medium through which electrical currents travel.
Electrical current is also carried by copper deposited on the walls of the holes drilled in the boards, called electroless copper plating, thus connecting the top surface circuitry to the bottom as well as to layers of circuitry inside the base material. Electroless copper depositions range from 50 microinches to 150 microinches thick. Though this is the most cost-effective method for metalizing the throughholes of a PCB, the process waste is costly to treat. The President and CEO is C. David Ferguson. In addition to the Foil operation, Gould owns and operates as many as twenty-five other business in the electronics industry, and is truly a globally competitive company.
