Why Running a Trial Run First is Important in PCB Assembly Do you have a new PCB idea and want to see it executed? Once you have the design drawn up and are ready to move forward you might be wanting to execute a large quantity because you know they will sell, but the bigger question is will it work properly?  Before spending all that money you should really consider a trial run before entering

Turn Your Big Idea Into a Prototype Have you had an idea for the next great invention swirling around in your head for-ev-er, well New Year’s is approaching. Is 2023 the year you finally turn your dream into reality and build your invention? Creating a new invention is hard work, but you’d be surprised by how many companies and vendors exist to help you along the way. New Product Introduction is a challenging phase in

Did You Know That We Can Also Rework Your Defective PCBs?

Rather than write these circuit boards off as a loss (and lose your investment), you may be able to give them new life. At ACME PCB Assembly, we may be able to re-work and

It is important to understand that a wire harness is different than a cable harness.  A wire is a single conductor, while cables are two or more wires that are insulated being wrapped in a larger jacket. These two technologies demand their own set of unique tools, fixtures, and machinery to help reduce production costs. Knowing exactly what type of product being used is crucial to perfectly create your designs. Wire harnesses generally do not

You might be wondering what solder mask is and why it’s important.  Solder masks are a very important part of protecting a PCB.  Solder mask, or solder resister is a thin covering that protects the PCB from oxidation.  It also prevents solder bridges from forming between solder pads that are close together. One example of other ways that solder masks can be used effectively by companies are how solder masks are traditionally green but are
