TAOYUAN, TAIPEI -- A fire here yesterday damaged manufacturing lines at Unimicron Technology, the world's largest printed circuit board fabricator.
The fire, which has been extinguished, damaged an undisclosed number of lines at the PCB company's site. Other lines have resumed operation, Unimicron said. The damage is being evaluated, and some programs will be moved to other sites to ensure production schedules, the company said.
Unimicron ranked first among all PCB fabricators last year, according to the annual NTI-100 by Dr. Hayao Nakahara.
