Rigorous Testing and Inspection Procedures to Ensure High Quality PCB Products

Printed circuit board assembly is a complex process, and there are possibilities of defects occurring in the process. Faults in PCB assembly can include failures in SMT equipment to incorrect component placement.

Therefore, rigorous testing and inspection is crucial to ensure only the finest quality PCB products are delivered to the client.

Testing & Inspection for PCB Assembly at Creative Hi-Tech Ltd.

At Creative Hi-Tech Ltd. (CHTL), we employ multiple testing and inspection procedures to ensure best quality PCB assemblies are produced and delivered to the customer. We emphasize on effective quality control to avoid rework. This allows us to lower overall product costs and ensure efficient resource management.

Extensive testing and inspection procedures are implemented throughout the PCB assembly process to detect faults early on, ensuring high product quality and yield.
