LPKF is supporting the electronics team with two application engineers and technology for circuit board prototyping. The competitors design layouts to solve their task in CAD systems, and LPKF converts the layouts into practical PCBs directly on site - these boards are then used to continue the competition. This year, Lyon, France, will be the host city for WorldSkills 2024 from September 10 to 15.
Stefan Kiel and Lukas Illig from the LPKF sales and application team are already preparing for their deployment. For the first time, powerful combination systems are being used. Two tabletop LPKF ProtoLaser H4 combine the best of both worlds: the high-precision laser takes care of structuring the conductor tracks on the PCB, and the system handles the mechanical drilling and cutting applications independently with the help of the automatic tool change.
