Technotronix facilitates PCB prototyping services with a unique way of using advanced techniques like automated layout analysis, algorithms & custom technical specimens depending on the Gerber file and BOM (Bill of Materials) required for a particular prototype. PCB prototype is the basic sample of product that is built with the primary aim of testing the functionality of the design ideas. Our experience in this genre allows us to build PCB prototypes in just 24 hours.

We strongly focus on our client requirements and product quality. Our quick turn custom prototype circuit board services will be delivered within the timeframe provided by the client. Adapting a full-fledged inspection system and pre-production check ensure its quality.

We deliver multilayered quick-turn prototypes, combined surface mount, chip-on-board (COB), testing, and custom PCB prototypes. We fulfil industrial requirements of defense, medical, electronics, renewable energy, telecommunication, and more.

Our flexibility reaches to deliver full, partial turnkey and consigned PCB assembly with custom prototyping services. To solve the problems pertaining to low volume and highly complex assemblies, we acute flying probe testing. It helps to detect the missing components and validate the component placement.

PCB Prototyping Process

DFM Review

In DFM review, our engineering team will identify end-of-life (EOL) components if any, layout enhancements, and opportunities to increase efficiency. The purpose of this process is to resolve any potential manufacturing issues immediately.

Material, Components selection and Kit Prep

Our team will work on material and components gathering from trusted suppliers and vendors, guaranteeing quality.

Board Fabrication

In this stage, we will review Gerber files received from customers to kick start the PCB fabrication process.

Assembly & Test

At our manufacturing unit, the prototype specialist assigned to your project goes to your board through each step. From there, the process will continue for the fast-track process, silk screen, soldering, guiding your board through inspection and testing.

Completed Prototype Product Delivery

With our quick NPI process, your PCB prototype product will be delivered with required documentation packages, test certificates (if applicable), and other components if any.
