How To Choose The Best PCB Manufacturer?

PCBA Quality:

Quality is a key issue when selecting the right PCBA manufacturer. The word quality can mean a variety of different things and in itself it is not defined and possibly a little abstract. However, the PCBA quality essentially means that the board comes in as required and to drawing – no errors. PCBA quality can mean a variety of different aspects:
● Board to the right dimensions
● All holes drilled and accurately positioned
● Passes bare board test
● Minimum board warping (although some of this can be due to board design)

Ability to Meet Requirements:
The first question to ask is whether the PCBA manufacturer can work to the required specifications. In essence can they accept the files on the formats they will be provided (normally this should not be a problem as formats are generally standard), and also produce a board of the required specification: number of layers, type of PCB material; tolerances; specific requests, etc.

PCBA Manufacture Cost:
Cost is a factor of major importance. Reducing costs is part of making a product successful, however care must be taken to ensure the cost is not too low. The lowest cost is obviously a major factor in any decision, but it has been said, the joy of low cost is forgotten long before the grief of poor quality has been overcome. Balancing cost and quality is necessary to achieve the lowest price but for the required product.

Timescales:
Sometimes the time it takes to manufacture a PCB may not be a major concern. However most PCB assembly companies require boards by given deadlines. Ensuring these deadlines can be met is a major factor that should be considered when selecting a PCB manufacturer. Whilst it is useful to be able to rely on a PCB manufacturer / supplier to meet arranged timescales, it is also useful to have the capability to supply boards with a fast turnaround. This is normally done at a premium on the cost, and also if the turnaround requested is too fast, it can sometimes lead to an increase in errors.

Materials Sourcing:
One key question for many companies looking at selecting the right PCB manufacturer will be where the materials are sourced. Some low cost manufacturers may look to sourcing materials from the cheapest place and as a result the boards may not be consistent varying in performance from batch to batch. It is likely that it is necessary that the board specific regulations that govern the use of various hazardous substances that are restricted in manufactured electronics including lead, mercury, cadmium, and a few other fire retardants.

Board Testing:
Better quality PCB manufacturers and suppliers will test boards, possibly on a sample basis to make sure they conform. Check that the company has the ability to undertake this in the way that is needed.
