A list of machine models proves very little on its own. What decides the quality of your build is which stage each machine sits in — because a defect is cheap to catch at some stages and expensive at others.
So this page runs in the same order your board does: bare-board fabrication first, then placement and soldering, then inspection. Every photograph is from our own lines in Shenzhen.
Fabrication happens before any component is involved, and a mistake made here cannot be fixed later in the process.
Printing, placement and soldering — most of what a buyer worries about lives in these six machines.
Inspection is the stage that decides whether a problem reaches you or stops here.
How many printers, ovens and inspection stations we run — and the process limits they add up to — are on the capabilities page. They are kept in one place on purpose: the same number written on two pages eventually reads differently on two pages, and then neither is worth trusting.
The three sections above are the machines. These are boards that have been through them. Like every other photograph on this page they are our own boards, lit on our own bench — not a stock image and not a render.
