We at Axio Electronics provide Low-volume PCB assembly as a service, which refers to the process of assembling a small number of printed circuit boards (PCBs), typically in quantities of a few hundred or fewer. This process is often used for prototyping or small-scale production runs.

• Component procurement: The required components are sourced from suppliers and ordered based on the specifications of the PCB design.
• Solder paste application: Solder paste is applied to the PCB using a stencil, which ensures that the paste is applied only to the desired areas.
• Pick and place: The components are picked up by a machine called a pick-and-place machine and placed on the PCB in the correct positions.
• Reflow soldering: The PCB is placed in a reflow oven, which heats it to a temperature that causes the solder paste to melt and bond the components to the PCB.
• Inspection: The assembled PCB is inspected for any defects or issues, and any necessary repairs are made.
• Testing: The completed PCB is tested to ensure that it functions as expected.

The low-volume PCB assembly process typically involves the following steps:

Low-volume PCB assembly can be done in-house at Axio Eletronics. All the necessary equipment and expertise are available, or it can be outsourced to a specialized assembly service provider as well. The choice between in-house assembly and outsourcing will depend on factors such as the complexity of the PCB design, the required level of quality, and the available resources.
