PCB Assembly Services / FPCBA & PCBA
Custom PCB Assembly Solutions for High-Reliability Electronics
PICA delivers precision component assembly for both rigid PCB builds (PCBA) and flexible circuit assemblies (FPCBA), supporting prototypes through reliable production. With integrated sourcing, kitting, reflow or selective soldering, and quality inspection, we build assemblies that are electrically robust and mechanically dependable. Whether your design requires standard FR-4 PCBs, thin flexible circuits, or rigid-flex interconnects, we optimize the assembly process for performance, yield, and manufacturability.
Our turnkey approach reduces vendor handoffs and engineering uncertainty by managing component placement, wiring, interconnects, encapsulation, and final electrical verification under one controlled process. Customers choose PICA because we balance manufacturability with reliability, support tight dimensional and mechanical constraints, and deliver assemblies prepared for box build or final device integration. By engaging early, our team aligns design decisions with high-volume best practices to ensure predictable outcomes and lower lifecycle risk.
PICA’s component assembly services are used in medical wearables, IoT sensors, industrial controls, energy management platforms, test/evaluation hardware, and advanced consumer devices. Whether you need PCBA support with complex mixed-signal layouts, or FPCBA for thin, bend-capable flexible circuits, we deliver assemblies that perform consistently across prototypes and production. Our engineering support helps streamline documentation, BOM alignment, inspection criteria, and reliability requirements so your assemblies are ready for the next stage.
