BOOKBINDERS | RIGID-FLEX PCB

Multilayered Flexibility for Weight and Space Optimization

Bookbinders are a type of rigid-flex printed circuit board designed to help accommodate tight spaces, with the need to bend and fold in a full 180-degree manner.

The individual layers are stacked on top of each other, but they are not bonded together. The staggered flex lengths allows the layers to slide past each other when the bookbinder flexible circuit is bent.

RIGID-FLEX

Integrated Strength for Compact, Reliable Design

Rigid-flex PCBs combine rigid board stability with flexible circuit adaptability, allowing reliable performance in tight or complex packaging. This hybrid construction reduces connectors, saves weight, and improves durability in high-reliability environments. 

Ideal for defense, aviation, space exploration and advanced electronic systems. Rigid-flex designs support tighter bend radii, improved signal integrity, and consistent performance under vibration and thermal stress. Making them essential for next-generation mission-critical hardware.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT RIGID-FLEX CIRCUIT BOARDS

Rigid-flex PCBs hold many advantages over a traditional rigid circuit board. Rigid-flex circuit boards provide many new designs with advanced capabilities of bi-directional bookbinder flexes, multi-layer builds exceeding twenty layers, and buried microvias.

Achieve precise circuit placement and functionality with our rigid-flex circuit options, which are durable enough to be used in many mission-critical applications.

Our team can customize PCBs to meet your application’s exact specifications and performance standards.

Whether you need specific layouts, unique form factors, or advanced functionality, our engineering team will work closely to ensure the final product aligns perfectly with your application needs. We’re here to support you every step of the way, from concept to production. 

At Pioneer, we offer comprehensive mockup services that include the creation of a non-functional prototype of your PCB design.

This allows you to evaluate the form, fit, and layout to ensure everything aligns with your project requirements before moving into full-scale production. It’s an essential step for visualizing your rigid-flex circuit board in real-world conditions, reducing costly revisions, and giving you greater confidence in the final design.
