Printed Circuit Board Inspection
Service Detail from Advanced Assembly, LLC.
DESIGN FOR ASSEMBLY – Free Printed Circuit Board Inspection
Our finely tuned, free, DFA engineering process reduces assembly time by a full week and helps to ensure your boards work perfectly the very first time.
HOW IT WORKS
While parts are still being procured, design data is extracted from the Gerbers, XYRS and BOM files and used to create a PDF image.
Next, our engineering team reviews the design to verify part fit and rotation. Almost all potential errors are caught and corrected prior to assembly, including:
- Missing Polarity Markings
- Part Rotation
- Package to Footprint Fit
- Part Spacing
- BOM and XYRS Comparison
Customers are notified if errors are found and given the opportunity to confirm final designs.
This free printed circuit board inspection process prevents costly delays, ultimately reducing circuit board assembly time by a full week, on average.
