Assembling Prototypes and Small Series implies the handling of Thousands of BOM lines or Parts per day. The logistics of receiving the goods and proper warehousing is crucial for an orderly production and thus efficient process flow.

Assembling Prototypes and Small Series implies sourcing of hundreds of different types of parts per day. Running an efficient Component Sourcing department is crucial for achieving fast turnaround manufacturing. We source all components while we manufacture the PCBs in our own factory...
The Solder Paste data are prepared, the Stencil is laser cut and thus all is ready to start the Solder Paste Printing, the Solder Paste Jetting and the subsequent Solder Paste Inspection before presenting the Solder Paste ready boards to the Pick & Place machine for component mounting.
The key job preparation activity for assembling prototypes & small series is the Component Kitting & Feeder preparation. Reducing Pick & Place machine set up times is key for manufacturing many small jobs. Efficient Component Kitting is the key.
Eurocircuits laser cuts its own solder paste stencils needed for the in-house assembly process. In-house laser cutting saves time and creates flexibility needed for the fast turn around delivery of prototypes and small series populated PCBs.
