PODPCB has developed series of management procedures and approaches to assure that PCBs are in compliance with the customers' requirements, inclusive of selection of the vendors, work in progress (WIP) inspection, outgoing delivery inspection and customer service etc.

When customers' design data and specifications are provided to our market department, PODPCB has to verify all the requirements. Then, convert the design data into manufacturing data by CAM. Finally, a manufacturing instruction (MI) is generated according to the real manufacturing process and technologies for manufacturing department as the basis for actual fabrication. MI must be reviewed by independent engineers and QA engineers before issue.

All materials have to be inspected before warehousing. We established a series of strict inspection procedure and instruction to control the incoming materials. Furthermore, various precise inspecting instruments and apparatus guarantee the capability to judge the material good or not. We issue material with first in first out principle, and give out “alarm” for the material that will reach the shelf life to ensure the materials are used up before expiry.

Right manufacturing instruction (MI), comprehensive equipment management and maintenance and process control, strict WIP inspection and monitoring as well as working instruction, all those make the whole fabrication process totally controlled.

All PCBs have to be gone through the open and short test as well as visual inspection after passed the specified physical tests. We own various advanced test equipment including customized, probe flying test machines to guarantee that each PCB is 100% tested.

We set up a dedicated FQA department to inspect the PCB products according to the customer's specifications and requirements by sampling. Qualified PCBs are going to be packed. FQA also has to carry out a 100% audit of the warehouse packing and shipping products, including product number, customer number, product quantity, shipping address and so on prior to shipment.
