how to choose pcb assembly factory

Many customers and engineers don't know how to choose a suitable PCBA manufacturer. After all, PCBA is a very complicated professional process, from pre-communication, procurement, to production, to later assembly of finished products, if not a professional. The rigorous and experienced team is very easy to have problems in various aspects, resulting in the final production results are not very good, so we must pay attention to the following points when choosing PCBA processing manufacturers:

1. Factory specialization

The first thing to look at is whether the factory has professional equipment. PCBA processing requires very specialized equipment, such as high-speed placement machines, multi-temperature zone reflow soldering, AOI detectors, ICT in-circuit testers and other equipment, which are the basis of production. Whether there is professional process management, PCBA processing requires professional equipment, and professional process management is required to control quality. Generally better PCBA processing manufacturers will pass the ISO9001 quality management system, IPC-A-610E electronic assembly acceptance criteria and other certifications, whether there are SOP job instructions and other information documents to guide the behavior of employees. By looking at the factory's data documents and qualifications, you can get an idea of the quality of the factory's quality control.

2, service awareness

PCBA does more than just products, more services, processing services, pre-sales and after-sales services, a PCBA proofing manufacturer with good service awareness can take the initiative to take responsibility when customers encounter problems, and quickly respond to customers. Solve the problem. Therefore, the service awareness of a PCBA proofing manufacturer is very important. The service awareness of PCBA proofing manufacturers can be understood by understanding the company's corporate culture and the attitude of business people to customers.

3. Industry experience

In the context of the Sino-US trade war, the PCBA industry is experiencing big waves, and some poorly-operated PCBA processing manufacturers have begun to close down. The industry experience with many years reflects the strength of a PCBA manufacturer to a certain extent. Secondly, we must look at the products manufactured, whether it is high-end, mid-range or low-end, and which areas of the products are manufactured. It is necessary to judge whether it matches itself. Only the right one is the best.

4, the price

In the market, the price of PCBA proofing is relatively transparent, with high prices and low prices, but the lower the price, the better. Some PCBA processing manufacturers choose to purchase the original components from the formal channels, and the implementation of strict quality control, will increase the cost of processing; and some printed circuit board assembly processing manufacturers in order to reduce prices, may be easy to cut corners, resulting in unstable quality. As the so-called penny and goods, we should choose the right cost-effective PCBA processing factory according to our own situation.
