Assembly processing + stencil

Choose a supply arrangement. Component procurement and PCB fabrication are reviewed separately from this processing budget.

01 / Build & sourcing

Not sure of the counts? Uncheck the option and send your BOM for a reviewed quotation.

Board size, panelization & delivery
02 / Stencil specification

Reference allowance: $35 / one-side set or $60 / both-side set. Print sides follow the selected populated sides. Frame dimensions, apertures and finishing require review.

03 / Coating, testing & special requirements

Selected additions appear under “Not yet priced” and are carried into your inquiry.

For coating, include material/standard, thickness, coverage and keep-out areas. For testing or programming, include the procedure, firmware revision, fixture needs and pass/fail limits.

How this reference budget works

The planner uses the existing PCBSync assembly processing model. Its stencil allowance is USD 35 for a one-side set or USD 60 for a both-side set, multiplied by the number of sets. These are uncalibrated planning allowances, not published selling prices. Frame size, apertures, coating and custom construction require review. Assembly quantity means individual boards, not panels.

The displayed ±12% spread is illustrative, not a validated accuracy claim. Special requirements are listed separately and do not silently enter the total. Turnkey selection does not price your BOM. A final quotation requires engineering review of the actual files and material availability.

Valid planner settings can be retained in this browser tab for up to two hours; these planner drafts are kept separately from other tools. Contact details and uploaded design files are not stored by this planner.

One processing allowance is not the complete project cost.

Build the right way

An assembly route that fits your project.

PCB assembly turns a fabricated bare board and electronic components into a populated circuit board. Your project stage and your sourcing arrangement are separate choices: a prototype can be turnkey, and a production run can use customer-supplied parts.

01

Prototype & NPI

Resolve placement, component and test questions before repeating the build. Identify revision changes and define what the first article needs to prove.

Prototype PCB assembly →
02

Low-volume builds

Plan repeat batches around component availability, shared tooling and a controlled BOM. Tell us whether you need one delivery or a staged release.

Low-volume assembly →
03

Production & repeat orders

Agree the approved revision, sourcing plan, inspection records and release process. Repeatability starts with consistent documentation and controlled changes.

Contract manufacturing →

Engineering fit

Match the assembly process to the board.

Use this overview to prepare the right engineering questions. Feasibility depends on the component package, board construction, spacing, process sequence and inspection access; send the actual design to confirm the manufacturing route.

Parts & procurement

Keep the sourcing plan visible.

Avoid a quote that looks complete but leaves critical parts unresolved. State who supplies each item, whether substitutions are permitted and what happens when an approved part is unavailable.

Choose who supplies the components
ArrangementPCBSync quotation scopeYour starting information
TurnkeyComponent sourcing and assembly; include bare-board fabrication when required.BOM with manufacturer part numbers, approved alternatives and traceability needs.
Partial turnkeyAssembly and the BOM lines you assign for sourcing.Mark customer-supplied lines, supplied quantities and expected availability.
Consigned componentsAssembly using your supplied kit; identify any additional services.Kit list, packaging and quantities. Clarify setup consumption, shortages and unused-material handling before release.

Keep approvals clear: identify permitted alternatives and who can approve substitutions. Material availability, excess stock and delivery arrangements belong in the reviewed quotation.

For a combined project, include PCB manufacturing requirements in the same inquiry. Component price and availability, excess material, test fixtures, packaging and shipping should be identified separately from placement cost.

Beyond component placement

Specify the finishing and verification your product needs.

Stencils & solder deposition

Choose new tooling, verified reuse or a customer-supplied stencil. Aperture design, foil thickness, frame dimensions and paste release must suit the component mix.

PCB stencil services →

Coating & cleaning

Identify coating chemistry, coverage, thickness and keep-out regions for connectors and test points. Discuss cleaning and verification requirements before selecting the process.

Conformal coating →

Testing & programming

Define inspection coverage separately from electrical or functional test. Supply a controlled firmware revision, programming interface and acceptance procedure when required.

X-ray inspection · IC programming →

Select these requirements in the planner. Special service costs are reviewed against the actual process and are shown separately from the reference assembly budget.

Quality & acceptance

Choose the verification your product needs.

Match the check to the question
MethodWhat it can help checkScope to agree
AOI / optical inspectionVisible component placement, polarity and solder features.Visible areas, inspection criteria and the required record.
X-ray inspectionHidden-joint features beneath BGA and similar packages.Devices to inspect, sampling and acceptance limits. It does not prove functional performance.
In-circuit / flying-probe testAccessible electrical nodes and selected component or circuit checks.Test access, coverage, fixture or program requirements and limits.
Functional testingOperation under the specified power, firmware and interface conditions.Controlled procedure, fixtures, firmware and pass/fail limits.

Different checks find different problems. Optical inspection can identify visible placement and solder issues; X-ray inspection helps assess hidden joints. Electrical or functional testing needs a defined procedure and suitable test access.

Agree the acceptance criteria before the build. Identify which checks apply, which records you need and how nonconforming findings or engineering questions should be handled. A named test step alone does not describe the coverage.

Review the PCBA testing laboratory and functional testing options. For regulated or reliability-sensitive products, request the applicable certification scope and project-specific evidence during supplier qualification.

Review the build package

Resolve BOM, placement and fabrication questions. Confirm which files control the build and document requested changes.

Confirm parts and first article

Check material readiness, tooling and any first article inspection requirements. Agree what must be approved before the full batch proceeds.

Build, inspect and release

Follow the agreed inspection and test scope, then confirm packing and delivery arrangements. Requested delivery dates need review against material readiness and production capacity.

An urgent delivery should start with a complete file review and a parts availability check. Discuss quick-turn assembly when time is critical, or explore the assembly process before preparing your package.

Design for assembly

A few checks now can prevent a difficult build.

Give the build team a consistent revision

Keep Gerber data, BOM, centroid file and drawings synchronized. Make do-not-populate positions explicit; list reference designators, quantities and manufacturer part numbers without relying only on informal part descriptions.

Make orientation and access unambiguous

Specify polarity, pin 1, connector direction and critical mechanical clearances. Include fiducials, panel rails and depaneling constraints for review. For functional test, show accessible test points and identify the expected power-up sequence.

Firmware, test software and approved substitutions need their own revision controls. Record who can authorize a change and how it will be confirmed before the build.

    Common project questions

    Before you request an assembly quote.

    What files are needed for a PCB assembly quote?

    Start with the BOM, Gerber and drill data, placement file and assembly drawing. Include quantities, sourcing ownership, test and programming requirements, target delivery date and the current revision. If a file is missing, explain what is still being developed.

    Can you supply both components and PCBs?

    You can request a combined fabrication, component sourcing and assembly quotation. Turnkey sourcing is reviewed against the BOM and part availability. Identify approved alternatives and any items that you will supply yourself.

    Does the online estimate include the full turnkey cost?

    No. The planner separates the assembly processing allowance and any new stencil allowance. Components, bare boards and selected special requirements still need review. Turnkey describes who supplies the material; it does not automatically price your BOM.

    How is assembly lead time determined?

    The schedule depends on file approval, material availability, tooling, process steps, inspection and production capacity. State the delivery date you need, then confirm the schedule in the project quotation.

    What changes when a prototype becomes a production order?

    The approved revision, sourcing plan, test coverage and release requirements need to be controlled. Review first-article findings and change history, then agree quantities, delivery batches and records for the repeat build.

    Can I request an NDA before sharing the design?

    Yes, use the Contact page to request an NDA before uploading confidential files. You can begin with a non-confidential project brief and the requirements you want to discuss.

    Can I request a stencil without PCB assembly?

    Yes. Choose Stencil only in the planner and specify print sides, the number of sets, board or print area, format and foil thickness. Send paste-layer data and printer frame requirements for an exact quotation. The reference allowance does not price every frame or custom construction.

    Can I add conformal coating, programming and testing?

    Yes. Mark the requested services in the planner and describe the required coverage in your inquiry. Coating needs material, thickness, masking and keep-out instructions; programming and functional testing need controlled files and an acceptance procedure. These items are reviewed separately from the base processing budget.

    What if I do not know the placement counts yet?

    Uncheck the placement-count option in the planner. It will prepare a project brief without displaying a numerical assembly price. Send the BOM and available design files so the build scope can be reviewed.

    Your next step

    Turn the build requirements into a reviewed quote.

    Use one inquiry to align the board revision, component ownership and acceptance requirements. A quotation request starts a review; it does not place an order.

    • Design package: BOM, Gerber and drill files, placement data and assembly drawings.
    • Build scope: quantities, turnkey or consigned supply, programming and test coverage.
    • Delivery needs: required arrival date, destination and any split deliveries.

    Still preparing the files? Begin with a non-confidential brief. Request an NDA before attaching confidential design data.
