What we offer

Full turnkey PCB assembly services.

Keep Best PCB Assembly Co., Ltd integrates component procurement, PCB manufacturing, SMT, DIP/THT, finished-product assembly and testing. This keeps purchasing, engineering and quality decisions connected instead of splitting responsibility between unrelated suppliers.

The process begins before the first board reaches the line. Files, components, inspection criteria and test requirements are reviewed together so the production route is clear before material release.

19 controlled checkpoints

Click a checkpoint to inspect the control behind it.

Five clear phases keep engineering, materials, production and quality aligned. Select any checkpoint below to see its production input, primary control and intended output.

From engineering through finished product

Three workstreams keep the process connected.

The original page presented KeepBest as a full-turnkey partner. These workstreams show what that means in practice and what each team hands to the next stage.

01 / Engineering & supply chain

Turn customer files into a controlled production package.

Design data, BOM, approved alternates, component status and inspection requirements are coordinated before release. This helps purchasing and production work from the same assumptions.

Gerber and drawing reviewDFMA risk feedbackBOM and alternate reviewMaterial status and IQC plan
02 / PCB assembly

Run SMT and THT as one coordinated manufacturing route.

Paste printing, SPI, placement, reflow and AOI form the SMT core. Through-hole insertion, selective or wave soldering, cleaning and coating are added according to the assembly design.

03 / Test & finished product

Verify the board, complete final assembly and release it with records.

X-ray, ICT, FCT, programming, burn-in, final QA, labeling and box build are selected from the approved product plan. Packaging protects the released product through delivery.

A route built for the product

Not every PCBA should follow the same path.

We select the assembly and inspection route from component technology, board density, reliability requirements, production volume and end-use environment. That keeps the process complete without adding unnecessary steps.

Your quotation should identify the planned assembly, inspection and test route—not only a unit price.
01SMT-only boardsPrinting, SPI, placement, reflow and AOI form the core route.
02Mixed SMT + THTThe through-hole branch follows SMT inspection and adds insertion and soldering.
03Hidden-joint packagesBGA, QFN and other hidden joints can add X-ray verification.
04Protected or tested productsCoating, programming, ICT, FCT, burn-in or box build are added as required.

China and Thailand support

One project standard across three locations.

The original page highlights KeepBest's Shenzhen, Jiangmen and Thailand presence. In the redesigned structure, each location has a clear role while project requirements, communication and quality expectations stay connected.

Process FAQ

Questions buyers ask before production.

Clear inputs help us choose the correct production and inspection route.

What files do you need to review a PCB assembly process?

Gerber files, BOM, assembly drawings, target quantity and any programming, coating, inspection or functional-test requirements provide the best starting point.

Do all projects use all 19 checkpoints?

No. The 19-checkpoint map shows the complete controlled route. Product-specific steps such as THT soldering, X-ray, conformal coating, ICT or burn-in are activated when required.

Can you support prototype and low-volume PCBA?

Yes. The same engineering and quality logic applies, while the production route is adjusted for the quantity, product maturity and component availability.

How are process issues traced?

Material identification, production records, inspection results and test data are linked according to the traceability requirements agreed for the project.

Can assembly, sourcing and testing be quoted together?

Yes. KeepBest's turnkey scope can combine PCB manufacturing, component purchasing, assembly, inspection, test and finished-product operations.
