To make modern Printed Circuit Board (PCB) is an art form with
involvement of special skill and knowledge. The entire process requires extreme
effort from auditing a consigned kit to make the ultimate final quality
inspection. By use of the Consigned assembly you can bring your product to
market on time.
Required Materials for Consigned Assembly:
Among the available Electronic
assembly services, Consigned assembly is considered as an important one.
The components that are needed are supplied by the customer. There are number
of reasons that are considered for consignment of the materials – the product
can be much expensive or it can also be proprietary product or the customer can
also have a large inventory.
Kitting of Consigned Assembly:
An absolutely through audit is made for consigned kits as
they reaches our dock. The Bill-of-Materials (BOM) can be compared to the components
that are supplied and also verify the accuracy in values, part numbers, package
types and sizes and also tolerances. The report of an audit is normally
generated within forty eight hours.
There are a certain number of considerations that are to be
taken into account:
·
Component Shortages – Mainly shortage of
components is considered to be the most important reason for any delay of
delivery. In most of the cases, the building of the circuit is not started
unless every shortage issues are solved.
·
Special Handling— Requirement of any special
handling, especially if solder reflow profiles are required or if there is any
restrictions in the process of washing like washing in an aqueous cleaner is
strictly restricted. Thus any such special handling if required then it must be
informed.
Kits Supply
The components in your kit must be supplied either as
continuous strips of tape or by proper packaging or with clearly labeled parts.
Before the final release, the Kit Audit department must review carefully all
the parts of your kit to ensure proper quantity and quality of the components.
Considering all the above information, Consigned
assembly is treated as one of the finest program for PCB’s among the huge
variations of Electronic assembly
services that are available in the modern market.
