PCB Tech - Advantages of PCBA foundry materials

PCBA is the entire processing process of the empty PCB board through smt and then dip plug-in. In the entire processing process, the process is complex, the production is fine, the required components are various, and the plug-in, welding, and inspection processes of various components require high-precision equipment. Nowadays, many companies generally find PCBA processing plants for OEM processing for their products. So what are the advantages of PCBA OEMs?

1. PCB OEM materials can reduce the cost of purchasing materials. PCB program design and PCB sampling OEMs process the electronic materials of each unit. The purchase of materials is large, and there are special fixed material suppliers. The suppliers are in order to be able to long-term In cooperation with major manufacturers, the land will provide the lowest prices, which most people cannot buy.

2. PCBA foundry materials can reduce warehouse area. If you need to purchase a large amount of raw materials, you have to prepare a warehouse for storage, and you need to occupy the cost of the warehouse. There are also a large number of raw materials in the warehouse, and a dedicated person is required to manage them. These are all costs.

3. PCBA foundry materials can save money on buying machinery and equipment, and use the money where it is needed more. The whole process of PCBA also requires various precision processing equipment and various testing equipment. If you process it yourself, you will have to purchase these equipment, which will cost a lot of money. After processing, these equipments are left in a sluggish state, which is a waste.

What is PCBA foundry material?

PCBA foundry in a narrow sense refers to the provision of electronic components purchasing and PCBA processing services.

In a broad sense, PCBA foundry materials refer to the provision of a complete set of PCBA processing services from electronic program filing, electronic product development, material purchasing, prototype proofing and testing, and later batch processing and production.

What are the types of PCBA foundries?

Technology-led

mainly focuses on the development of electronic solutions (either forward or reverse) and electronic product design. The company focuses on the research and development of electronic products, and can also provide small and medium batch PCBA processing and corresponding material purchasing.

Process-oriented

The company has several SMT chip processing production lines, which can provide efficient electronic product processing services. However, fewer resources are provided for product development, and customers are generally required to provide relevant technical documents for processing.

So what should I pay attention to when choosing a PCBA foundry manufacturer?

1. When customers choose PCBA OEM manufacturers, they need to carefully investigate their basic conditions, especially the regularity and professionalism of the manufacturer. Regarding its formality, you can learn from its related qualifications, such as whether it has passed the ISO9001 quality management system certification, etc.; it requires more patience to understand its electronic processing professionalism. It is necessary to visit the PCBA factory in person. The contents of the inspection include the situation of the SMT workshop, the situation of the DIP workshop, the office environment, the mental outlook of the company’s employees, etc., for example, to see if their production equipment is advanced enough and whether the PCBA production process is in line Requirements, whether the workshop environment is clean and tidy, whether the materials are placed in an orderly manner, and so on. Customers can also consider the development trajectory of the manufacturer in recent years. If it develops better and better, it can also see to a certain extent the comprehensive strength of the manufacturer and whether it is worthy of cooperation.

2. In order to ensure that the quality of the PCB boards and electronic components provided by PCBA foundry manufacturers is guaranteed, when choosing a suitable processing manufacturer, you need to look at the well-known companies that you are cooperating with. Whether the company it cooperates with has a well-known medium and large-scale enterprise, whether it provides PCBA overall supporting solutions for well-known brand companies; or observes whether there are currently popular areas in the field of electronic products that it processes, so that it can be indirectly clear Its processing strength. In addition, it is necessary to investigate whether the manufacturer has formed good quality control and comprehensive procurement capabilities in supporting electronic components, whether the manufacturer and agents have a long-term and stable cooperative relationship, and whether they have a good supply cycle and supply cost advantages.
