Expert West Midlands SMT Assembly Services
What is SMT Assembly?
Surface Mount Technology (SMT) Assembly is the process of mounting electronic components directly onto a printed circuit board (PCB). SMT enables compact, high-performance, and cost-effective electronic designs, making it the preferred assembly method for modern electronic manufacturing.
At First Choice Assembly, we specialise in high-speed, precision SMT assembly for businesses across the West Midlands and the UK. Whether you need rapid prototyping, small-batch production, or full-scale manufacturing, we provide scalable and cost-effective solutions.
Our West Midlands SMT Assembly Capabilities
High-Speed SMT Assembly
We use state-of-the-art pick-and-place machines to accurately and efficiently place components, supporting complex, high-density PCB designs.
Precision Solder Paste Application
Our DEK fully automatic screen printers ensure consistent solder paste application, improving connection reliability.
Automated Optical Inspection (AOI)
To maintain strict quality control, we inspect every assembled PCB using AOI technology, checking:
- Solder joint integrity
- Component placement accuracy
- Polarity & alignment verification
- Defect detection & correction
Prototype & Small-Batch SMT Assembly
We offer fast-turn SMT prototyping, enabling engineers to test and refine designs before mass production.
Hybrid PCB Assembly
For designs requiring both SMT and through-hole components, our hybrid assembly solutions provide seamless integration of multiple technologies.
