Quality Control

14+ Years Experience in the PCB Industry

We have enormous experience in both PCB manufacturing having spent 13+ years doing it.  Only the best companies survive and we strive to achieve prompt deliveries of good quality product at a very reasonable and affordable price.  We are a profitable business and believe in constant re-investment in staff training and capital plant.
 

Quality Control

We do not expect or want to get returns or complaints from customers. If we experience a problem, we treat every such event as an opportunity to learn what went wrong, and how to prevent a re-occurrence.
We require strict quality performance from PCB fabrication because any defects that manifest themselves during the assembly process cost customers tenfold if customers have to bear the cost of replacing components as well as remaking PCBs.
The humble PCB is the only unique part in every electronic product. Electronic parts can be replaced if they fail, but faulty PCBs render a complete electronic assembly useless. The quality of a PCB should never be risked given the multiplication effect of downstream added value.
 

Quality Management Team 

  • 65 fully skilled IQC, IPQC, QA, QAE and relevant quality management staff.
  • Equipped with advanced quality inspection machines, physical & chemical lab and tools.
  • Regular quality management training,performance analysis and improvement.
  • Continuous system upgrade and Lean manufacturing concept development.
 

Quality Management Practices

  • Strict clients PCB requirements complying and modification approval procedures.
  • FIFO and effective incoming materials inspection.
  • Regular vendors audit and performance analysis.
  • Specs tag along with boards during production.
  • 100% AOI and E-test.
  • Inspections including high voltage, impedance control, soldering ability, thermal& shocking test, insulating resistance,ionic cleanliness testing and more.
  • Micro-section analysis and testing report.
  • RMA and refund policy.
 

PCB Quality Performance Inspections

  • Check on Design for Manufacturability
  • Automatic optical inspection (AOI) & visual inspection
  • Electrical test (E-test) is included in all services
  • X-Ray
  • Digital microscopy
  • Micro-sectioning
  • Continuous chemical analysis of wet processes
  • Constant analysis of defects and scrap with corrective actions
  • Time Domain Reflectomery measurements for controlled impedance
 

Our Quality Control Gurantees 

PCBs will be built to your design and will be functional, being free of opens and short circuits, and have good solderability. Feature registration and appearance will meet or exceed IPC-A-600G Class 2. We want our product to meet your needs. We do not final test many of the PCB assemblies we manufacture because either production runs are too short, or because of compressed timescales. We will re-inspect and rework if necessary any assembly that does not function. We expect the number of none working PCB assemblies which we have not functionally tested to be very low indeed. If we have completed a functional test, we do not expect any failures.
 

Quality Certificates

PCBs are manufactured to meet or exceed IPC-A-600G (Acceptability of Printed Boards) Class 1 and 2 classifications. This IPC specification gives an objective visual inspection baseline which pcbs must meet. We are happy for our products to be judged against internationally published standards to ensure our clients receive the standard of quality they expect. All our products will be suitable for applications where extended life and continuous service are expected.
