Electronic Manufacturing Services for the Food Industry
September 19, 2019
Quality and safety are of the utmost importance to the food manufacturing industry. Failure of process standards for contamination control could result in sickness for hundreds or thousands of people or even lead to someone’s death. Needless to say, there are strict standards in place. And you should expect the same when it comes to […]
Use an Electronic Manufacturer To Take Your Product To Next Level
August 26, 2019
You’re really good at what you do, you’ve got a sweet product that you are so close to taking to the next level, but you’re stuck. Stuck in design, stuck in function, STUCK. You need some new ideas to move your product forward. Consider using an electronic manufacturer to breathe new life into your design.
Avoiding 3 Common Problems During PCB Manufacturing Process
June 11, 2019
PCB manufacturing isn’t rocket science, but it does take some attention to detail. The design and quality of printed circuit boards directly affect how well the boards work in the final product. Designing and manufacturing PCBs can be a complex process. There is a risk of PCB failure as a result of oversights while a […]
PCB Development in Electronic Manufacturing: The 5 Step Process
June 6, 2019
Printed circuit boards have come a long way. PCB evolution has led to so much innovation that you can find boards in everything from the simplest electronics in children’s toys to sleek, cutting edge smart phones. But the PCBs for these projects don’t magically appear. There is an entire PCB development process that occurs before […]
Hand Soldering: Why It’s the Right Call For Your Electronic Manufacturing PCB Assembly
November 26, 2018
Through-hole assembly, once the most common electronic manufacturing and assembly technique, has become rare in a world where tiny components with many connectors are the norm. Through-hole assembly is an excellent choice for producing a high-quality PCB assembly, but it cannot perform well when small size is the top priority. In some instances, particularly in […]
Guide to Understanding the PCBA Electronic Manufacturing Process
November 19, 2018
The world of electronics and electronic manufacturing is constantly changing. It’s an industry with a rapid pace evolution and shows no signs of slowing down, but the printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) process is one standard among this swift progression.
Lead Free vs. Leaded Solder in Electronic Manufacturing
September 13, 2018
Prior to 2006, most of the metallic components in electronic devices were created using tin or lead solder. These materials were reliable, easy to observe and understand and readily available. Assemblies were designed specifically for use with tin/lead solder, including the temperatures required to work with these materials during electronic manufacturing.
Benefits of Surface Mount Technology
August 29, 2018
If you have held a TV remote control in your hand, punched a button on a microwave or adjusted a digital thermostat, you have interacted with surface mount technology, or SMT. Since the 1980s, nearly all mass-produced electronics are now manufactured using SMT.
What is the difference between SMT and SMD For An Electronic Manufacturer?
August 14, 2018
SMT and SMD. These two little acronyms get mixed up a lot in the electronics manufacturing service world. For electronic manufacturers on paper, they only vary by a single letter, but in practice, there’s a lot more separating SMTs and SMDs. Chiefly, one is a process and the other is a device.
Electronic Manufacturer Explains the Difference Between Through-Hole and Surface Mount Technology
July 16, 2018
Two assembly types are prevalent in electronics manufacturing: through-hole technology (THT) and surface mount technology (SMT). Selection of SMT or THT plays an important role in manufacturing efficiency and cost. This means it is important for customers to be aware of their definitions, differences, and applications at their electronic manufacturer.
