In Shenzhen ,a place where there are PCBA OEMs everywhere . It is very difficult to find a suitable PCBA OEM factory for many small and medium-sized enterprises.Often at this time, it will fall into a vicious circle – price anchoring, judging whether a factory is suitable or not, becomes how much cost it can save. As the saying goes, “who eats and who pays”, if you blindly pursue the lower price of PCBA foundry , the consequences and losses will be incalculable.

So how to choose to qualified PCBA OEM manufacturers? What are the criterias for judging the qualified PCBA foundry?

Firstly, the turnover and storage of electronic components.

The turnover and storage of electronic components can also reflect a PCBA processing factory’s awareness of quality management and details.

  1. 1. Whether there is a reasonable area for the storage of semi-finished products, products to be inspected, and finished products of incoming components, whether they meet the 6S management requirements, and whether it is convenient to prepare materials;
  2. 2. Whether the purchased materials have been inspected and then stored;
  3. 3. Whether all materials are used in accordance with the principle of first-in, first-out;
  4. 4. Whether the storage of components helps to improve product reliability and safety;
  5. 5. Whether the turnover tool is anti-static, whether the protective gloves and anti-static wristbands are fully worn;

The storage and transportation of components is a very strict matter, but it is also the most overlooked point.

Secondly, PCBA manufacturing equipment

As a PCBA OEM factory, in addition to the basic patch plug-in equipment, other auxiliary equipment is also essential. The integrity of the manufacturing equipment chain directly determines the capacity and quality of SMT patches. Fully implement the precision placement of BGA/IC and other components, and implement the quality policy of all inspections to ensure that the product qualification rate.

So whether a company has the relevant testing equipment and qualified operation technician, whether the daily production capacity can reach their own production needs, can be through the company equipped with the equipment to make a judgment.

Therefore, a factory with a nearly complete production chain can guarantee the daily production volume, and can also accurately detect the abnormalities of the products, and efficiently and quickly make production with.

Thirdly, the importance of equipment capacity

Due to the fluctuation of consumption cycle and quarter, any industry or factory has the differences between different seasons. When the order of a PCBA factory is very full and the delivery time is very urgent. Even if other customers place a large order, there will be two situations in the factory at this time. The first is to take the order first, and then slowly grind it with you until the existing urgent orders are exhausted. Second: I will refuse to cooperate with you because of delivery issues. Even some large customers will require the PCBA processing factory to separate two lines independently to it. Then you evaluate the production capacity based on all the production lines of the company, and finally this evaluation is not inaccurate.

Fourthly, logistics and packaging

Logistics and transportation is an uncontrolled link, once shipped is whether the logistics can can safely deliver the PCBA to the customer. But as a preventive measure, packaging must also be taken seriously. Especially whether the anti-static packaging is perfect and whether the protection measures to prevent bumping are fully considered. Some PCBA processing factories believe that since there is freight insurance, there is no need to pay too much attention to the intermediate links of PCBA processing and production.

Therefore, in order to save cost, the protection level of the product is reduced.Eventually, PCBA products cause quality accidents during the logistics and transportation process. Not only delays customer delivery, but also directly reduces the trust and reputation of the enterprise in the hearts of customers.

Fifthly, the Environmental sanitation of the factory

Environmental certification has always been an important concern in the production of products.

First of all, the factory’s environmental sanitation has a direct impact on 2 points.

  1. First: the working environment of enterprise employees.
  2. Second: the cleanliness of the product quality.

Essentially most people will choose a clean and tidy manufacturer as a partner. The hygienic condition of the production workshop of the factory directly reflects the sense of responsibility of a company’s managers and the executive power of employees. This is connected with the later PCBA production and processing, to do a good job in the management of the company’s hygiene can ensure the quality of the products.
