    Standard PCBs were never built for this.


    High current. Constant heat. Relentless duty cycles.


    The result? Overheated traces. Premature failures. Costly system shutdowns.


    That's where heavy copper PCBs come in.


    With copper layers ranging from 3 to 10 oz, heavy copper PCBs carry significantly higher currents, dissipate heat more efficiently, and deliver the kind of long-term reliability that demanding applications require.


    Renewable energy systems. Motor controllers. Industrial power supplies. These are the environments where standard PCBs fall short — and heavy copper steps up.


    At WeiYuanDa, we've been engineering heavy copper PCBs for over 20 years. UL-certified up to 6 oz. From fast prototyping to full volume production — we deliver power boards you can count on.


    WeiYuanDa Heavy Copper PCBs. Power you can trust.
