The Importance of PCB Prototyping

In the world of manufacturing, creating the first one of anything is a big and important step. This part is commonly referred to as prototyping, and it will always be a companion of manufacturing. In the world of printed circuit boards, it is no different. When a new piece of hardware is designed that requires a PCB, then, PCB manufacturers will also need to work on a prototype. Building the first PCB is just the beginning. After creating it, the most likely scenario is that it will continue to need refinements until the right PCB is made. There are basically five steps involved in PCB manufacturing:

· Design and prototype stage

· Schematics

· Physical layout

· Manufacturer & Testing

· Completed PCB with documentation

The Following are the Benefits of PCB Prototyping

· Once they have the physical PCB at hand, they will be able to integrate it with the application it was designed for.

· After it is integrated with the application, they can take a closer look at any quirks or shortcomings.  

· Along with performance issues, the physical discrepancies can also be dealt with.

· During the testing stage; the manufacturer will also be able to test user input.

· Last but not least; the prototype test is done to make sure it meets design specs.

What to Look for in a Good PCB Manufacturing Company

1. Economies of Scale. Whether it is many small orders or one large order, achieving economies of scale is important, to remain efficient and profitable. The first step towards achieving this will be to have a “smart platform” or a software-based platform. A good software platform allows the manufacturer to control the whole process efficiently, from start to finish.

2. Quantity Levels. A great advantage of achieving economies of scale is that the manufacturer is no longer a slave of minimum quantity levels. Whether it is a few units or thousands, the company can produce only what the customer needs. We Baiqiancheng understands this and will make only the amount the customer needs.

3. Pricing & Availability.
