At CircuitHub, our mission has always been to empower creators, engineers, and developers by simplifying the manufacturing process for electronics. We're thrilled to announce our latest collaboration with engineering design firm Antmicro.
As part of our continuous commitment to optimizing our prototyping capabilities, we have exciting news to share! We are in the process of installing a new state-of-the-art ERSA reflow oven at our factory. This advanced piece of equipment is a game-changer for our production line, providing us with much better process control and reliability, which is crucial for maintaining the high quality of our PCB assemblies.
In this episode of the PickPlace Podcast, Chris and Melissa discuss the challenges and intricacies of working with RGB LEDs, specifically the popular surface-mount DotStar LEDs from Adafruit.
In this episode we delve into the topic of RF (Radio Frequency) shields. Chris explains the different types of RF shields—open top, closed top, and clip-based—detailing their applications, advantages, and challenges.
Ever wondered how the electronics manufacturing industry maximizes efficiency and minimizes waste? One answer lies in the process of PCB panelization. This technique involves grouping multiple PCBs onto a single panel for manufacturing, which not only streamlines assembly but also significantly reduces costs. But what exactly is involved in panelization, and how can designers help optimize this process?
In this episode Chris and Melissa continue their deep dive into the critical role of stencils in electronics assembly, with expert insights from Brett Babilonia
“On-demand” is a phrase frequently used by various manufacturing services. In general, it refers to a system where products are manufactured only when needed and in the required quantities. CircuitHub's core business is on-demand PCB manufacturing, which has a specific meaning in relation to how our service operates.
In this episode, we dive into the crucial role of stencils in electronics manufacturing. Joined by Brett Babilonia, we explore the complexities of stencil design, including handling missing data, determining foil thickness, and ensuring optimal solder paste application.
Without accessible concrete data, customers often struggle to assess quality, complicating the evaluation of potential new suppliers. Our Metrics page addresses this issue by offering real-time data on the percentage of orders shipped on time, defect-free orders, among others.
The second quarter has been a period of significant operational improvements. We are thrilled to share some fantastic progress and innovations happening on our factory floor.
