PCBA batch processing success of the four secrets

For electronics companies, PCBA processing is an important part of transforming design into electronic products, unless the company is very strong and has a complete back-end production line. Otherwise, we need to consider choosing PCBA contract service. But how do you choose the right supplier and what do you need to do to work with it? Today we will share with you the PCBA batch processing success of the four secrets.

PCBA batch processing success of the four secrets

1. Plan ahead

Choosing a supplier that matches you should be on the agenda long before your design is complete. This allows you to combine the expertise of PCBA manufacturers in the PCB design process. The manufacturer's engineers will most likely be able to advise you on ways to improve your design to make your product easier to manufacture and less costly to test. If not communicated in advance, it will increase the later cost.

2. Look for cooperative suppliers

Choose to partner with the vendors you work with, not just the vendors. In every project, there will inevitably be design, modification, processing, testing and other aspects of the adjustment work, you need a supplier to work with you, in order to eliminate the immature stage of the problem. And as a long-term partner, we can work well together on future projects.

3. Evaluate capacity and capacity

Of course evaluate whether the supplier can provide the complete service you want? This may include not only PCB Assembly, but also component procurement, die opening, SMT patches, product assembly, testing and even design support. Does the vendor have the equipment needed to effectively process the PCBA you are using? Is their capacity appropriate for the amount of product you expect to produce each year?

4. Trust your suppliers

When you have chosen the right supplier following the instructions we have just given, trust their advice. They have experience producing thousands of different products for thousands of customers. They'll know the problems and pitfalls that can limit the success of your product, and they'll know what to do to get things done. Listen carefully to what they tell you -- their advice is invaluable.

2.PCBA processing quotation method

PCBA processing quotation mainly involves PCB board fee, component purchase fee and welding processing fee three parts. Shenzhen kingford is a professional PCBA processing manufacturer that provides overall PCBA electronic manufacturing services. Next, we introduce the PCBA processing quotation method.

PCBA processing quotation steps are roughly divided into the following steps

1. Calculate the total material cost according to BOM and Gerber documents;

2. Calculated the cost of SMT patch and DIP plug-in processing;

3. Calculate the cost of PCBA testing (such as ICT, FCT testing, etc.);

4. Packaging logistics evaluation.

According to the customer's region and product characteristics, cost addition pricing is generally adopted, that is, in the quotation = cost * (1+x%), where x needs the above comprehensive evaluation, according to experience, x% is generally within this range: ≤20%.

PCBA processing quotation needs to be provided

1. Complete PCB board making files (Gerber files, positioning maps, steel mesh files) and board making requirements;

2. Complete a BOM (including the model, brand, package, and description).

3. PCBA assembly drawing.

PS: Report the PCBA function test fee, and provide the PCBA function test method.

PCBA processing process

1. Customers place orders

Customers place orders according to their actual needs of PCBA processing plants, and put forward specific requirements. The processing plant will evaluate its capacity to see if it can fulfill the order. If the manufacturer is sure that they can complete the order within the expected time, then the two parties will negotiate to determine the production details.

2. Production materials provided by customers

After the customer decides to place an order, he shall provide a series of documents and lists to the PCBA processing plant, such as PCB electronic files, coordinate files, BOM list and so on, which must be provided.

3. Purchase raw materials

PCBA processing plant purchases relevant raw materials from designated suppliers according to the documents provided by customers.

4. Incoming material inspection

Before PCBA processing, strict quality inspection is carried out for all raw materials to be used to ensure that they are qualified before being put into production.

5. PCBA production

In the process of PCBA processing, in order to ensure the quality of production, whether it is patch or welding production, the manufacturer needs to strictly control the furnace temperature.

6. PCBA test

The PCBA processing plant conducts rigorous product testing, and the PCB board that passes the test is delivered to the customer.

7. Packaging after sale

After the PCBA processing is completed, the products are packaged and then handed over to the customer to complete the whole PCBA processing.
