Small Batch PCB Assembly

Many manufacturers of electrical devices around the world have come to realize the benefits of outsourcing certain processes in their business, such as PCB assembly. A manufacturer only needs to come up with the circuit design. Other things, such as circuit board assembly, testing, and packaging can all be handled by third parties. It is important to note, however, that some firms only accept orders exceeding a certain threshold, so they cannot handle small batch PCB assembly. If you only want to make a dozen or a hundred PCBs, therefore, you will need to find a suitable firm that can handle the small batch.

The fees charged by a firm for the assembly job must be considered. You also have to compare their experience to the experiences of other firms. This will go a long way in pointing you in the right direction.
