Let's talk about keeping your SMT assembly quality consistent and reliable. When you're manufacturing electronics, quality control isn't just paperwork - it's what keeps your production on schedule and prevents costly field failures. At Caboer, we've built a quality system that actually works in the real world, and we want to show you exactly how we do it.

First Step: Checking What Shows Up at Our Door

Before anything hits our production line, we're checking every component that comes in:

• We match everything against your BOM - part numbers, specs, packaging - making sure what we received is exactly what you ordered

• We physically inspect critical components for damage or corrosion

• We test sample batches to verify values and functionality

• Everything gets tracked with batch codes so we can trace issues back to the source

If something doesn't meet standards, it doesn't get past our receiving area. Simple as that.

Keeping Tabs During Production

Once production starts, we're watching every step:

Stencil and Printing
We calibrate our stencils and printers for each job, making sure solder paste goes exactly where it should. No shortcuts here - proper paste application prevents most soldering issues down the line.

Component Placement
Our placement machines run with tight tolerances, but we still do regular checks. We're looking for missing parts, wrong orientation, or anything that doesn't look right. The system flags issues automatically, and our operators double-check.

Reflow Process
We don't use generic temperature profiles. Each product gets its own optimized reflow recipe, and we monitor the oven constantly. All the temperature data gets logged - if there's ever a question, we can show you exactly how the boards were processed.

Catching What Might Have Been Missed

After soldering, every board goes through our AOI (Automated Optical Inspection):

• High-resolution cameras scan every joint and component

• The system flags solder bridges, insufficient solder, misplaced parts - things human eyes might miss

• Any board with issues gets marked for rework with precise locations

When rework is needed, our technicians follow strict procedures. They use the right tools for each job, and reworked boards get inspected again to make sure they meet standards.

Final Checks Before Shipping

Before anything ships, we put finished products through their paces:

• We test functionality under real-world conditions

• For complex products, we build custom test fixtures

• We check physical appearance and dimensions

• We verify compliance with relevant standards

• For critical applications (medical, automotive), we run additional reliability testing

Why Our Approach Works for Our Clients

Here's what makes our quality system different:

• It's consistent - same standards apply whether you're ordering 100 units or 100,000

• We use modern equipment that reduces human error

• We understand international compliance requirements

• You get full visibility - we can show you test results and production data

• We adapt our approach based on your product's needs

The Bottom Line

Good SMT quality control isn't about having the most checkboxes - it's about having the right checks in the right places. We've built our system to catch issues early, prevent defects, and deliver boards that work right the first time.

Whether you're building consumer gadgets, industrial equipment, or medical devices, we provide the consistent quality you need. We don't cut corners, and we're transparent about how we work.
