PCB Fabrication
PalPilot’s manufacturing division offers solutions to meet your needs no matter the mix or volume. Our experienced sales teams will help every step of the way from design to development; and our offshore factories afford us production capacity to meet projects of all sizes. Business moves fast, that’s why we pride ourselves in offering quick turnaround (5-10 days from Asia), so you can meet aggressive deadlines. Common types of PCB production we offer include: High Mix Low Volume (HMLV) Production For Low and High technology PCB’s, Medium Volume Production 1-40 layer, High Volume Production 1-40 Layer, Flex and Rigid Flex, Prototype, small, medium, and high volume production.
Our team recognizes the importance of supply and demand; each task is carefully executed. The significance of our component supply chain demonstrates our ability to adapt to the ever-changing dynamics of the electronics industry. Learn more about our Component Supply Chain service.
