Surface mounted PCB assembly services.
At First Choice Assembly, we understand that evolving technology requires equally advanced solutions. As components become more compact and complex, we are committed to delivering precise, high-quality PCB assembly using the latest equipment and techniques.
From initial prototype stages to full-scale production, our facilities are optimised for speed, accuracy, and flexibility, ensuring every project meets the highest standards. Explore our advanced capabilities and see how our expertise can support your specific assembly needs.
Surface Mount Precision with Yamaha’s iPulse Technology
We utilise ten Yamaha iPulse pick-and-place machines, capable of placing components from 0201 sizes to large 54mm QFPs with speeds up to 22,000 components per hour per machine. The system’s advanced vision alignment enables accuracy down to 0.3mm pitches and 0.8mm BGA row spacing.
Flexible Prototyping and Mid-Volume Production
Our setup is optimised for both small prototype runs and mid-volume production, offering flexibility to meet diverse project needs. For prototypes, we also offer combined machine and hand placement services to allow maximum flexibility and precision placement.
High-Accuracy Screen Printing
Equipped with DEK NeoHorizon 03 iX fully automatic screen printer, we ensure precise solder paste or glue application. Laser-cut, optically inspected stainless steel stencils, tensioned by Zelflex frameless technology, ensure each print’s accuracy and consistency across batches.
Comprehensive Inspection with AOI
Each assembled PCB can undergo Automatic Optical Inspection (AOI), checking solder integrity, component alignment, and even component values, to maintain the highest quality and reliability.
