Demand for Printed Circuit Boards to Bolster Growth in Asia’s Dry Film Industry: Ken Research

Dry film is a polyester film coated with a polymer which is sensitive to ultraviolet light.  A dry film comprises of cover sheet formed of flexible, but generally non-conforming material, giving the dry film shape while allowing it to be rolled into a reel. On one surface of the cover sheet is a thin layer of material known as a top coat which is soluble in the developer for the photoimageable composition. The photoimageable composition forms a layer over the other surface of the top coat. A removable sheet protects the photoimageable composition layer. The material which is used to form the top coat is selectively adherent to the photoimageable composition layer relative to its adherence to the cover sheet, whereby the cover sheet may be removed from the top coat and thereby leave the top coat as a protective covering for the layer of photoimageable composition.

It is a major advantage in a dry film for applying a primary imaging photoresist layer to a substrate that the relatively thick cover sheet be removed prior to imaging, thereby substantially improving the resolution of the imaging which may be achieved. Although, similar advantages of resolution are obtained, in fact, with a solder mask-forming dry film, resolution of image is of substantially less concern with solder masks than with primary photoresists.

According to the study “Asia Dry Film Industry Situation and Prospects Research report”, dry film is used in the development, manufacturing and distribution for wiring formation of printed circuit boards, including IC packages, rigid substrates and FPC. With the evolution in electronic circuits, the application of dry film has expanded to touch panels and precision metal machining. The exposed area of dry film, which is of negative type, is hardened. It is necessary for a user to control the stability of the film thickness of the liquid resist during coating. Controlling the film thickness with high accuracy is difficult due to its liquid state although it depends on the coating method. However, the thickness of the dry film does not change and there is no necessary for a user to control the resist thickness. Dry films can reduce environmental load compared with liquid resist due to waste liquid disposal.

Dry films can be applied to stainless steel, 42 alloy, invar alloy, copper, which are generally used for circuit formation. Variants of copper are electro-less copper, electrolytic copper, rolled copper foil, sputtered copper, and other types. Dry film is photosensitive to natural light and needs to be handled under a yellow lamp. When storing substrates with laminated dry film before exposure, it is recommended to shield it from light using a black polyethylene sheet.
 
Geographically, Asia dry film industry is spread across China, Japan, India, Korea, Saudi Arabia and other regions. Asia dry film industry is segmented into various product types such as thickness 20 m, thickness 21-29, thickness 30-39, and thickness 40m. The various applications in Asia dry film industry are PCB, semiconductor packaging and others. The leading players in Asia dry film industry are Hitachi Chemical (JP), Asahi Kasei (JP), Eternal (TW), KOLON Industries (KR), DuPont (US), Changchun Group (TW), Mitsubishi (JP), Elga Japan (IT), FIRST (CN) and EMS (US).

India ATM Managed Services Market is Driven by Increasing Penetration of White Label ATMs in Rural Areas Coupled with Growth in Branchless Banking: Ken Research


Increasing number of outdated ATMs has led to surge in demand for latest and upgraded technology driven ATMs which led to expansion of India ATM Managed Services Market. 

Analysts at Ken Research in their latest publication, “India ATM Market Outlook to 2023 – By ATM Supply, Managed Services (ATM Repair, Maintenance and Other Services, Transaction Processing, Cash Reconciliation Statement, Content and Electronic Journal Management) & Cash Management (ATM Replenishment, CIT, CPD) believe that promoting better regulations, setting up biometric ATMs in rural areas and focusing towards hybrid business models will aid the India ATM Managed Services Market.

India ATM Managed Services market is expected to register positive CAGR of around 6.7% during the period FY’2018-FY’2023 in terms of revenue. ATM repair and maintenance along with cash management services will expect to have positive impact on overall revenue generation for the India ATM Managed Services market.
Currently ATMs are majorly concentrated in cities and urban areas, whereas very low penetration was observed in rural areas of the country. As a result of which, it is skewed toward the most developed states: Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Maharashtra have high ATM penetration, while large but less developed states like Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar are well below the national average in terms of ATM penetration. The Government of India through its various schemes has helped to bridge these gaps and provide broader access to local residents. Efforts towards increasing ATM penetration and to increase the efficiency of existing ATM machines have made India one of the largest markets for ATM deployment in Asia. White Label ATM companies are largely focusing on rural areas as demand for cash is increasing in that area due to Pradhan Mantri Jan-Dhan Yojana (PMJDY) in which people are encouraged to open bank account at zero balance which driven the demand for debit card transactions in rural areas majorly. These entities are increasing the existence of ATM services in rural areas.

As of May 31st, 2017 new RBI circular has mandated banks to upgrade the OS and security feature of non-compliant ATMs. It is reported that majority of the ATMs in India were running on outdated operating systems, thus making them vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Increasing security threats to the cash in ATMs, and the need to improve efficiency in cash handling through improved hardware, has contributed to the replacement demand for ATMs in India. Many cash dispensers are now being replaced with cash recyclers to improve the efficiency in cash replenishment in India.
