PCB assembly is the process of placing all electronic components on the printed circuit board exactly as the design plan dictates. Some assembly designs can require 100’s of different components. Those components are purchased through a variety of Authorized Distributors. With complicated builds requiring hundreds of components, it is not unusual to purchase from 5 to 15 different distribution sources. #

Official definition of a Kit is “a set of materials or parts from which something can be assembled…” and the definition of Kitting is “to package or make available in a kit”. Kitting has been the primary focus of the Project Coordinators at California Integration Coordinators, Inc. since 1988. With our depth of experience, it is our privilege to explain what Kitting means for the PCB assembly.

Engineering projects slowing to a crawl with the pandemic and the Work from Home policies?

Some engineers have the luxury of having their own “sandbox”; a place they can build and test out concepts. Once the concept and design have reached a point where it can be shared with others, now what? Will it be nights and weekends trying to build multiples of the latest gizmo to share?

There are 3 levels of OEM product repair, 1. organizational, 2. intermediate and 3. depot-level. Organizational repair and intermediate repair are generally done on-site to immediately replace or repair and replace failed products. Depot level repairs are often completed in off-site 3rd party locations performing OEM sanctioned product repairs, and/ or modifications per OEM specifications.

Knowing when to source materials can accelerate the schedule of your PCB build and significantly reduce the transition from engineering design phase to product delivery.

Knowing when to source materials can accelerate the schedule of your PCB build and significantly reduce the transition from engineering design phase to product delivery. Purchasing material too early can result in procuring material that may be unnecessary for the final design. Likewise, waiting too...
