AI server PCB upgrades drive explosive demand for advanced backdrilling equipment

As AI servers and high-speed networking gear push for higher data rates, PCBs are moving to more layers and lower-loss materials. This sharply raises demand for advanced backdrilling equipment used to form clean via holes.

• AI servers and networking gear shift to PCBs with higher layer counts
• Lower-loss materials are used to cut signal attenuation
• Growing PCB complexity boosts demand for precision backdrilling tools
