Final Check - Full Electrical Flying Probe Test

Ensures every connection on the PCB is electrically sound, detecting shorts, opens, and misroutes.

ASSEMBLY

1.

Offline Programming & Check

Involves preparing machine programs away from the production line to ensure accurate component placement and reduce downtime during assembly.

2.

SMT Electrical Test

Checks the electronic properties of each component as well as the physical shape and size, ensuring the correct component is always placed.

3.

First off Check

A quality control step where the first assembled PCB is thoroughly inspected and tested to ensure it meets design specifications and functional requirements before full-scale production begins.

4.

3D AOI

Inspects the PCB for defects such as incorrect component placement and orientations, soldering issues, and missing parts, providing a detailed inspection of every solder fillet to ensure high-quality assembly.

FINAL UNIT ASSEMBLY

1.

Custom Build Pack

Ensuring all components listed for the order are in stock, cost-effective, and not obsolete before production begins.

2.

SMT Electrical Test

Checks the electronic properties of each component as well as the physical shape and size, ensuring the correct component is always placed.
