SMT Equipment

Solder Paste Chemistry

PCB Requirements for SMT Production

  • For precise parts placement, a pair of fiducials (marks) must be incorporated in the PCB.
  • Fiducials should be between 0.04″ and 0.08″ in diameter and should be located at opposite corners of the board.
  • There should be no other reflective features within 0.20″ of any fiducial.
  • PCBs and panels should have breakaway excess framing material extending approximately .5” on at least two opposite sides as rails and to contain the fiducials.
  • A practical size limit for panelized boards is about 12″ square depending on PCB thickness and rigidity.

Prototype

Capacity

  • Can be as little as a 1+ prototype assemblies
  • Customers may order variations with multiple prototypes.
  • May be run via any of our standard manufacturing processes.
  • Does not have to be an actual prototype: we support small production runs too

Components

  • See the SMT or Through-Hole pages for supported components for your assembly.
  • Note that large quantities of parts will likely lead us to run your prototype via SMT.

Example prototypes:

  • Testing equipment for internal quality control.
  • Limited quantity trial runs of your test product.
  • Proprietary equipment.

Requirements

  • See SMT requirements.
  • See also Through-Hole requirements.

Design for Manufacturability (DFM)

  • Available feedback services to bring prototypes to full production.
  • Can lower production costs and enhance performance of your assemblies.
  • Our highly experienced staff offer expert input as just another part of our production services.

Through Hole

Production Capacity

  • Over 10,000 pieces, through-hole only or mixed technology.

Components

  • Mixed production runs with SMT and Mechanical components available.
  • Lead Free (RoHS), Immersion Silver (IS), and other specialty processes capable.

Any industry, any assembly:

  • Industrial valves and flow controls.
  • Automotive ECU mainboards.
  • Proprietary, non-consumer devices

Turnkey

SERVICES:

Full Turnkey

  • In-house parts department dedicated to finding all the right components for your assemblies.
  • We can provide all of the parts for your assembly, even sourcing a PCB manufacturer.
  • Leaded or Lead Free (RoHS) option.

Partial Turnkey

  • Customers can provide some parts, and have us purchase anything they do not have a supplier for.

INVENTORY:

On-site Inventory

  • We store all the parts for your assemblies, keeping them on hand for future orders.
  • Individual customer inventories means that your specified parts are ready for just your assemblies.
  • Have us keep parts for multiple revisions, leaded or unleaded variations.

Facility

  • ESD protected facility, literally from the floor tiles up, means your parts are kept in optimal working order.
  • Accu-sembly employees are constantly monitored for ESD protectedness to ensure your parts are kept safe.
  • Temperature controlled climate.

FEATURES:

  • Have Accu-sembly purchase all the parts for your assembly and store them on-site.
  • Option to provide some parts and have Accu-sembly purchase the rest for you.
  • ESD Free environment and inventory system.
  • On-site inventory expedites the production process.
  • Leaded or lead-free (RoHS) parts available.

Inspection

TYPES:

Automated Optical Inspection (AOI)

Components down to 01005 and 0.3mm pitch.
Assurance of correct polarity, accurate placement, optical character recognition (OCR).
Discovers tombstoning, insufficient solder, and shorts for proper rework.

X-Ray Inspection

715x magnification reveals wire-bonds, die-shape, die-attach, delamination, voiding, etc.
Our system penetrates challenging packages, i.e. ceramic CGA’s, BGA’s with metal lids, heat sinks, and RF shielding.
Customers keep the image files for making reports, or later review.
