Frequently asked questions
Can I request PCB and assembly together?
The inquiry preview supports PCB, PCBA and combined requirements. Actual combined service availability and sourcing responsibilities require company confirmation.
What if a specification is not decided?
Choose engineering assistance or enter “Not sure”. Identify the intended use and the decision you need help with. The final specification must be agreed before production.
What files should I prepare?
For bare boards, prepare a revision-controlled Gerber ZIP with hole information and construction notes. For assembly, add the BOM, placement data and assembly drawing. See the detailed guides above.
Does selecting files send them to you?
No. File selection stays in the browser and is never uploaded in this preview. The form only creates a local summary marked NOT SUBMITTED.
Will changing service type erase my entries?
No. During this page session, switching between PCB and PCBA retains typed specifications and selected files. Only fields for the active service appear in the local summary. Reloading or leaving the page clears the draft; it is not saved to browser storage.
Which certifications, lead times and prices apply?
Verified certifications, production limits and lead times have not been provided. There is no live pricing. A real quotation requires confirmed capabilities, scope and availability.
