The requirements and procedures for turnkey PCB assembly services are significantly different from those for conventional PCB assembly services. Successful turnkey PCB assembly services require good coordination and communication. The requirements for turnkey PCB assembly services are -
Bill of Materials - BOM or Bill of Materials is extremely important in turnkey PCB assembly services. The BOM for regular assembly services should include the manufacturing part number and the PCB name of the component. In addition, turnkey PCB assembly services also require detailed part descriptions and one of the procurement links for components (non mandatory). BOM is extremely important for procurement, therefore it is necessary to correctly create and maintain BOM. Suppliers and customers may exchange BOMs multiple times during PCB turnkey assembly to confirm corrections or updates.
Pick and place files - The operation completed by the All/All PCB assembly machine requires generating pick and place files for each component to be installed. However, for many turnkey PCB assembly services, the pick and place files may be generated by the supplier for you, but it is recommended that you generate your own pick and place files to avoid any misunderstandings and errors.
Gerber files - Although Gerber files are not absolutely necessary, it is best to provide them for any PCB assembly for verification purposes. Turnkey PCB assembly services are no exception. If you choose turnkey PCB assembly services, suppliers may also provide Gerber file correction or improvement prompts in certain situations.
Transportation information - Although most transportation information is simple and clear, not all orders are like this. For large or commercial quantities, many countries have import tariffs, and for PCBs, import tariffs are very complex. For example, there are generally three types of electronic products that can be transported, namely SKD (semi loose parts), CKD (fully loose parts), and CBU (fully assembled parts), with different tariff percentages for each type. Customers must decide how to transport PCBs in order to minimize tariffs as much as possible.
