#69 | Interview, Philip Johnston

For this episode of the eTech podcast Ryan speaks to Philip Johnston, CEO of Trackwise PLC. Trackwise is a specialist UK based manufacturer of printed circuit boards. Printed circuit boards are a key component in all electronic equipment but it is a technology that has often been overlooked or undervalued. Much of the UK's PCB manufacturing has moved offshore however Trackwise has kept UK based manufacturing by innovating new products and manufacturing technology. First of all they developed large format PCB manufacturing processes and this found them success in markets such as antenna arrays for communications systems.They then developed large format flexible circuit manufacturing, and by flexible they mean it can bend and flex rather than quickly adapt to a change!So these large flexible circuits are finding more applications replacing wiring harnesses in aerospace and automotive. More recently Phillip and his team have been working with a key customer to improve battery module design by implementing flex circuits to replace the internal harness in the battery pack which interconnects the cells and BMS.To find out more listen to this great episode!Trackwise corporate website - https://www.trackwise.co.uk/Philip Johnston LinkedIn profile -https://www.linkedin.com/in/philip-johnston-66a5471/Ryan Maughan LinkedIn profile – https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-maughan-a2893610/eTech website – https://www.etech49.comFollow eTech49 on social media:LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/company/etech49-limitedTwitter – https://twitter.com/acexryan
