SMT Assembly with ShinePCB

SMT assembly places components directly on board pads. We review your placement data, paste layer and BOM, prepare a stencil for the design and agree inspection steps with the order.

  • Placement data and polarity
  • Paste layer and stencil design
  • Fine-pitch and BGA parts
  • Inspection steps
