PCBLOOP

Capabilities

We Offer a Full Range of Printed Circuit Board Capabilities to Fit All of Your PCB Needs

PCBLOOP is a professional quick turn PCB prototyping,PCB Assembly and low&medium-volume production manufacturer located in Shenzhen China.

PCB Fabrication Capability

As per the PCB design technology and the manufacturing process, our PCB fabrication services are divided into two types: The first category is what we call “Typical process”. It means we can offer Small Quantity – Quick Turn PCBs, Custom Spec – Standard PCBs, Quick-order PCB.

The second is our “Advanced process” offering. This shows the very high end PCB fabrication service that PCBLOOP can offer:Full Spec PCBs, Highly Specialized Precision PCBs, & Large Scale Production.

Please send messages to your sales rep if your boards are beyond the capabilities listed below.

We shorten the delivery time while guarantee quality, produced by chemical processes for pads and vias metallization, Refuse conductive adhesive technology to save costs, each order must go through 70 minutes copper plating, AOI and probe test, and we take advantage of internationally known base materials. This is for the boards layer count 1-4, for the those layer count more than 4 layers, LT will be double accordingly. In addition to the reduction in lead time, PCBLOOP not only reduced the price of small batch PCB,but also the freight cost for DHL parcels below 1 KG.

PCB Assembly Capability

Our state-of-the-art assembly equipment enable us to meet all your PCBA needs under one roof in an inexpensive way, our Printed Circuits Boards Assembly Capability includes but not limited to what are listed below, as we are updating our equipment constantly to keep us on the cutting edge. If your PCB Assembly demands are beyond these capabilities, please contact us at Support@pcbloop.com,

PCBA Capability

1.

Lead Time

Our assembly time ranges from 24 Hours to a few weeks. Please choose appropriate time option to fit your schedule and budget. Due to the complexity of how to determine the turn time of PCBA services, our policy is that turn-time begins immediately after all the parts are ready and all the PCB files (Gerber files/other PCB files, etc.,) , Centroid (Pick & Place PNP file, or XY Data or files in other formats), BOM, and all other necessary data or documents/images/photos are complete for our assembly work.

2.

Parts Source

Consigned/
kitted

We prefer you supply all the parts for the PCBA services. In this case, please send us all the components with BOM file and detailed packing list indicating item number, customer or manufacturer’s part number and quantity in kit.

Turn-key

With our wide and powerful network of parts sourcing, we offer Turn-key PCBA service. We do not mark up on the parts cost. Considering the big price gap between different suppliers, we only source from reliable suppliers who may have no price advantages. We will always ask for your approval before making any decisions.

Partial Turn-key/Combo

This is our regular practice which you offer the main devices and components, while we source the rest for you. Just like the Turn-key service, we will ask for your approval on every details of the parts concerning price, quality and availability.

3.

Assembly Options

We offer Surface Mount (SMT), Thru-Hole (THT) and hybrid of both. We also offer single or double-sided placement.

4.

Types of Solder

We offer both leaded and lead-free (RoHS Compliant) assembly services for our customers. Please choose one to best fit your PCB and the parts on the PCB.

5.

Stencils

We use laser cut stainless steel stencils to ensure high reliability for fine pitch and BGA components. Nano coating is available upon request.

6.

Minimum Order

We don’t have minimum order requirement, We do not want you to pay for what you do not need indeed to save you money.

7.

Component Size

⦁ Passive Component: we can accept components as small as 01005, 0201,0402.
⦁ BGA: We have the ability to handle BGA of 0.3mm pitch for rigid PCBLOOPand 0.4mm for flex boards with X-ray testing. (The details can be confirmed according to the board design.)
⦁ Fine Pitch Parts: we can assemble 0.25mm fine pitch parts.

8.

Component Package

We accept parts in Reels, Cut Tape, Tube & Tray, Loose Parts and Bulk.

9.

Board Dimension

⦁ Min Board Size: 10mm x 10mm (Boards smaller than this size need to be panelized)
⦁ Max Board Size: 400mm x 500mm

10.

Board Shape

We can assemble boards in Rectangular, Circular and any Odd Shapes. (For shapes other than rectangle, you need to panelize the boards in an array, and add break-away rails at the two longer paralleled edges of the panelized boards to ensure that the boards can be assembled by the SMT line.)

11.

Board Type

Currently we handles Rigid boards mostly. As we have the ability to handle flex and rigid-flex boards, please contact Support@pcbloop.com  if your boards are of flex or rigid-flex.

12.

Repair & Rework

Repair and rework can be difficult, but we do. Our BGA re-balling service with which we can safely remove the misplaced BGA, re-ball it and put it back on the PCB correctly. It is cost-effective.
