There’s no denying that robotics, automation, and other technological advancements have a place when it comes to improving today’s efficiencies, but nothing will ever beat the human eye for quality and accuracy.

We know that lots of people may believe that mass-produced items in this day and age are the creation of machines with little or no human intervention and that items just appear at the end of a conveyor belt.

We are here to tell you that PCB manufacturing companies – especially ours – don’t include such sorcery, it’s actually an intensive process that needs the human touch.

And it’s also worth pointing out at this stage that humans will always deliver the best customer service too! Especially our close-knit team of experts, they do enjoy a chat about all things PCB.

So, if you want to hear more about how we have found the perfect balance between machine and human to deliver the ultimate PCB prototype service, this blog is for you.

PCB Manufacture: the processes

Our clients differ wildly. It’s actually this diversity that makes our roles here even more enjoyable. And we don’t just mean in terms of sectors either. We mean in terms of their knowledge, particularly, how we bring their custom-printed circuit boards to life.

There are clients with engineering backgrounds that understand the processes inside out, and there are others who may not have had the time to explore the fine-grain detail – or let’s be honest, not really had the inclination.

This blog has been created very much with the second type of client in mind and we’ve made it our mission to get you just as excited about the 30 processes as we are.

Yes, you read that right, there are 30 processes involved in transforming your ideas into a circuit board.

Depending on the complexity of your PCB design and assembly, you may not require all 30, but it’s good for you to learn that we have experience with them all meaning we can skillfully carry out any request.

The human touch

We could list all 30 processes for you, but honestly, without a full detailed explanation of what they all mean in context, they won’t mean much. We’ll save that for another blog. But what we would like to highlight now, is that seven inspection stages are included.

Following certain steps of the PCB board fabrication, the inspections take place which have their own set of processes (…of course they do!). Some processes are suitable for machines, but the visual inspections must involve a human team. These inspection processes will differ too depending on whether your PCB is classified as rigid or flex. And rigid PCBs fall into three categories: single-sided, double-sided, and multi-layer. All have specific inspections to ensure the highest standards.

To guarantee that the board is of the highest quality and completely compatible with the client’s design requirement nothing measures up to the expert eye of an experienced prototype board designer with a strong magnifying glass and a ruler!
