Not only is the demand for personal protective equipment increasing due to the worldwide spread of the Coronavirus, but also after Ventilators. In order to ensure supply in Germany, the federal government placed several orders for ventilators with various manufacturers at short notice.

Würth Elektronik circuit board technology (CBT) delivers the PCBs For the production of Medical Technology Devices for intensive ventilation and for mobile ventilators.

"Thanks to our three production sites in Germany, we can supply the ventilator manufacturers with circuit boards in a wide variety of technological versions at short notice, ”explains Thomas Beck, Managing Director Sales and Marketing. “We accept orders at short notice and are able to control them, produce them smoothly and deliver reliably. In this way, the company makes a valuable contribution to securing the supply chain in this medical emergency, ”Beck continues.

The three German plants in Niedernhall, Rot am See and Schopfheim manufacture all types of printed circuit boards from basic technologies to complex ones in three shifts HDI circuit boards up to demanding Rigid-flex boards.

This strength is particularly useful in times of Corona pandemic. Because the production sites have the necessary resources and materials to accept orders for system-relevant products and to manufacture them with the greatest care. So that production in the German plants is still secured, strict protective measures and hygiene regulations were introduced and implemented for all employees weeks ago. These are adjusted if necessary.
