PCB Through Hole Assembly Services.
While surface mount technology (SMT) dominates many PCB designs, conventional leaded assembly remains crucial for certain boards and component types. At First Choice Assembly, we maintain a dedicated facility to handle these requirements efficiently.
Skilled Manual Assembly
Our experienced team specialises in hand soldering and component insertion, ensuring quality control at every step. Using flip jigs and Cropmatics equipment, they handle placement and cropping tasks with precision before hand or flow soldering.
Hybrid Assembly Solutions
For boards that incorporate both SMT and conventional components, our facility provides reliable hybrid assembly utilising various assembly methods including hand soldering, wave soldering and dual-wave soldering capabilities.
Specialised Coating and Cleaning
To protect sensitive assemblies, FCA offers conformal coating services with precise masking options. While we use “no clean” solder, we also offer cleaning options using our Kolb PSE-LH 511 cleaner, maintaining high standards for every assembly.
