Low-volume PCBA
Ten boards get the same process controls as ten thousand. Setup, stencil and programming appear as separate line items, so you can see exactly what the small batch costs and which setup costs may be reduced on a repeat order.
| Parameter | Scope |
|---|---|
| Batch size | 10–1,000 pcs per release |
| Assembly | Single or double-sided SMT, THT, mixed technology |
| Smallest package | Small-package and fine-pitch assembly available after engineering review |
| One-time setup | Stencil, line setup and programming quoted per build; may be reused on a repeat order of the same revision |
| Test | AOI, X-ray, ICT and FCT as selected on the RFQ; FCT needs your test plan |
| Lead time | Confirmed in your quotation, based on component availability |
| Reorders | Reference your previous order number in the RFQ to reuse the cleared BOM and tooling |
Boards are panelized to fill the machine window so you pay for the area you use instead of a full production panel.
Stencils and pick-and-place programs from a previous build may be reused on a repeat order of the same revision, which can reduce the setup charge.
Footprint, courtyard and paste questions are raised in a single review round.
The run between prototype sign-off and volume tooling, where the design is frozen but demand is not.
Long-life industrial products that need small, repeatable replenishment builds.
Products whose annual demand simply never reaches mass-production quantities.
Send Gerber, BOM and centroid; the quote separates parts, assembly and one-time setup.
