The birth and development of FPC and PCB gave birth to a new product of flexible and rigid combined boards. Therefore, flexible and rigid combined boards are flexible circuit boards and rigid circuit boards that have undergone pressing and other processes, and are combined according to relevant process requirements to form FPC characteristics. Circuit board with PCB characteristics.

The production process of soft and hard board:

Since the rigid-flex board is a combination of FPC and PCB, the production of rigid-flex board should have both FPC production equipment and PCB production equipment. First, the electronic engineer draws the circuit and shape of the soft and hard board according to the requirements, and then sends it to the factory that can produce the soft and hard board. The CAM engineer processes and plans related documents, and then arranges the FPC and PCB production lines required by the FPC production line. Produce the required PCB. After the production of these two soft and hard boards, the FPC and PCB were seamlessly pressed with a pressing machine according to the plan requirements of the electronic engineer, and then through a series of details, the soft and hard board was finally made. Because the production process is difficult, and there are many detailed problems, and its value is relatively high, it is usually necessary to conduct a comprehensive inspection before shipment, so as to avoid the loss of related benefits to both the supplier and the demander.

Advantages and disadvantages of soft and hard board:

Advantages: The rigid-flex board has the characteristics of FPC and PCB at the same time, so it can be used for some products with special requirements. It has a certain flexible area and a certain rigid area, which can save the internal space of the product, which is very helpful for reducing the volume of the finished product and improving the performance of the product.

Disadvantages: Rigid-flex board has many production processes, difficult production, low yield, more materials and manpower used, so its price is relatively expensive and the production cycle is relatively long.
