There are many factors that make up the price of a PCB sample. If a salesman who has just entered the industry does not understand the factors that constitute the price of PCB, it is difficult to quote a very standardized price. So, what parts does a PCB quote consist of?

1. Is it urgent?

For customers with strict delivery requirements, expedited order service can be applied. If the general single and double panels need 12 hours of expedited delivery, the PCB proofing manufacturer may charge an expedited fee of about 800 yuan.

2. Invoice fees

The financial procedures of some client companies are very formal, so every time a PCB procurement project occurs, an invoice needs to be provided, and the invoice is subject to tax. Therefore, PCB proofing manufacturers generally add this invoice tax to the PCB proofing price. cost.

3. Courier fee

Generally, customers with a long cooperation time and customers who are close to each other will be sent by the PCB proofing manufacturer to send a driver for free delivery, and customers who are far away will use express delivery. Ordinary express generally does not charge customers additional shipping costs. For higher-priced courier services such as SF Express, additional shipping fees will be charged. For specific shipping costs, please refer to the express company website.

4. Flying probe test fee

Generally, the number of samples is small and the data is simple. Most of them do not do flying probe test or fly probe test is free; once an order with very complex data and a large number of orders is involved, it will often occupy the machinery and equipment of the PCB proofing manufacturer, and the flying probe test will also be used. TOLL.

5. Surface treatment fee

Surface preparation costs vary widely due to circuit board materials and process requirements. For example, the gold of immersion gold is very expensive, so the price of the board of the immersion gold process is generally about 100 yuan higher than the price of the board of the ordinary spray tin process.

6. Ink cost

In PCB proofing, most of the solder mask inks use green oil white characters and ordinary inks. If the board has special requirements and the order quantity is small, the manufacturer will waste a lot of ink, so the price will be higher when choosing non-green oil white characters or specifying a certain brand of ink.

7. Board Fees

Mainly refers to the size of the PCB board. The larger the size, the more PCB substrate is consumed. Generally, the price is calculated by multiplying the size of the fixed board cost factor.

8. Others

Other costs such as fixed engineering costs and film costs, the more layers of the circuit board, the more film sheets are consumed, so the cost will be higher; the engineering cost mainly involves the processing of engineering data and the production of production tools. The more layers of the PCB board, the longer the production time and the higher the engineering cost.
