What is the charge standard for PCBA proofing in our factory?

you know that PCBA manufacturers will have a proofing confirmation stage before mass production of PCBA. Many buyers know that the average unit price of PCBA proofing is very high, so why is its cost so high? Next, let me explain to you the high cost of PCBA proofing?

The main reason for the high cost of PCBA proofing is that the project cost is charged. Because the number of PCBA proofing is relatively small, the utilization rate of production line is far lower than that of batch processing in PCB production and SMT chip processing.

In order to balance the processing cost, electronic processing factories will set a minimum consumption standard. If they fail to meet the minimum consumption standard, factories will charge engineering fees according to the minimum consumption standard.

The price calculation formula of PCBA proofing cost is as follows: engineering cost+SMT/DIP engineering cost+testing cost (required by customers)

The PCB project cost of our factory is generally about 500-1000, and the SMT/DIP project cost is between 1500-3000. The specific price of the project cost is mainly related to the difficulty of the process. The process difficulty and the price required for lead-free process will be relatively high. The test cost is determined according to whether the partners have test needs.

So now do you know the reason why the cost of pcba proofing is so high?
