Regarding the assembly of
printed PCBs, PCB assembly is a process that is classified under the heading
"Electronic Manufacturing Service". This term includes the processing of orders for electronic components, systems and devices. EMS providers mainly operate in their factories in Asian countries. In these supplier's locations they conduct research, marketing and sell their products. The manufacturing is usually outsourced to Asia, where a
- Different from SMT or THT assembly
- Mass production through automatic PCB assembly
- Special series production depending on the type of product
Quality Great offers Personalized large amount of pieces are produced in the special companies. For
PCB assembly, there are two common processes: SMT assembly; and THT assembly. The SMT assembly and SMD-soldering are often integrated into a fully automatic assembly line. The THT assembly usually occurs after the SMT assembly, to fix very fragile workpieces onto the
PCB. This is also the case for connecting cables and cable connectors. These fully automatic assembly lines for SMT assembly are adjusted for special series manufacturing depends on the type of product. The operation is usually conducted by computers that are programmed according to the requirements. A loading machine for
PCBs consists of a component supply station, a machine table for the PCB and several loading heads. An integrated camera system checks the position and the state of the workpiece, and adjusts the loading head when required. Printed Circuit Board (PCB)'s processing When the
PCB is fully assembled, a special transport system places a new unassembled PCB in the correct position. The loading machines are mainly made out of a variety of components, which allow them to be ready to quickly adapt to new production processes.
