PCBA processing manufacturers explain the factors affecting PCB prices
As a company specializing in the production of single-sided, double-sided, and multilayer circuit boards, it still has a say in the factors affecting PCB prices. At present, PCBA processingmanufacturers are based on different conditions when making quotations for PCBs, but the big difference is those points. The customer service of Electronics Co., Ltd. will often be asked about this type of question when receiving orders. So let's explain with you the factors affecting PCB prices.

1. The materials used by PCBA processing manufacturers are different, which results in the diversity of PCB prices. Let us give an example. If it is a double-sided board with a normal board thickness, the board thickness often varies from 0.2mm to 5.0mm, and the copper thickness varies from 0.5oz to 3oz, and these sheets will cause a huge price difference. In the same way, it can be proved that in terms of solder mask ink, there is also a certain price difference between ordinary thermosetting oil and photosensitive green oil, so the difference of materials has caused the price diversity. However, everyone still understands the ideal of one cent for one price. One should not blindly look at the price when dealing with things. It is better for people to be more flexible.

2, PCBA processing manufacturers have different production processes resulting in different prices. Different manufacturers have their own "means", how do you say it? Like gold-plated boards and tin-sprayed boards, the production of gongs (milling) boards and beer (punching) boards, the use of silk-printed lines and dry film lines, etc. will all have different costs. Naturally, when the finished product is sold, the price is also particularly large. Differences, so the time-consuming process and the more complicated process will inevitably be higher.

3. Different customer requirements will also result in different bids of PCBA processing manufacturers. Different people have different ideas, no one can control them, and their requirements for products are also different. The level of customer requirements will directly affect the yield of the board factory. Different circuit boards will have different pass rates when they are produced according to different requirements, and this will also lead to a final price difference.

4. PCBA processing manufacturers have different prices caused by different difficulty of PCB itself. You can surely guess that even with the same material and the same process, the cost of PCBA is different due to the different difficulty of the circuit board itself, so the price difference in PCBA processing and production is also very large. For example, there are 1000 holes on two kinds of circuit boards, and the hole diameter of one board is larger than 0.6mm and the hole diameter of the other board is smaller than 0.6mm, which will result in different drilling costs; for example, the two kinds of circuit boards are the same, but the line width and line spacing Different, one is greater than 0.2mm, and the other is less than 0.2mm, which will also cause different production costs, because the difficult board has a higher scrap rate, which will inevitably increase the cost, and thus cause the price diversity.

5. The price difference caused by different payment methods. You can guess that Boyuan Electronics does not need to introduce more here. The different payment methods you choose will naturally have differences in prices, and there will be obvious fluctuations in the price range. One-time payment and full payment, the preferential strength will also be different.

6. The price of the PCBA processing manufacturer you choose is different. Even if it is the same product, because different manufacturers have different process equipment and technical levels, different costs will be formed. No matter which PCBA processing method is booming nowadays, the final cost is low when the process is simple and the cost is low. On the contrary If the cost is high, the final cost will be higher.
