Flexible Circuit Assembly

Flexible circuit assembly, like bare flex FPC fabrication is different from standard rigid PCB assembly. Flexible circuit assemblies are electromechanical assemblies.

PICA Manufacturing Solutions has always been focused on flexible printed circuits applications, so we have expertise in the design, fabrication, and assembly to deliver a reliable solution for any FPC application. Performing all operations in-house also eliminates the miscommunication and production delays often seen with flexible circuit assemblies.

We can support development and low volume projects domestically (Derry, NH) and higher volume projects through our China operations.
