PCBWay website home page is as shown below:
To submit our PCB quote, first we’ve to create a PCBWay account, registration is done as any other website.
Also, PCB fabrication requires some files called: Gerber files. These files are created using a PCB drawing software like: Eagle CAD for PCB design, Proteus PCB Layout …
The submission of the PCB design to PCBWay is so easy, clicking on PCB Instant Quote (on main navigation menu) opens a window where we can set our PCB specification:
As shown above there’re many options, for example:
- Up to 14 layers,
- PCB material: FR-4 (FR: Flame Retardant), Aluminum …
- Thickness,
PCBWay can also make advanced PCBs which are high quality PCBs and they are recommended for industrial equipments, instrumentation, automotive electronics, communication equipments, etc.
As an addition to PCB fabrication, PCBWay provides PCB assembly services, clicking on Get Assembly Quote opens a window as shown below:
In the assembly service we choose between 3 services:
- Turnkey where PCBWay supplies all PCB parts,
- Kitted or Consigned where the customer is responsible for buying and sending all parts to PCBWay,
- Combo where the customer supplies some parts and PCBWay complete the rest.
PCB Assembly service needs a file called BOM file (BOM: Bill Of Materials). It is just a small file with XSLS format. For more information visit this article from PCBWay.
After the submission of PCB design and its specification PCBWay will show the cost of total PCB boards and shipping method (DHL, FedEX, China Post …).
By clicking on “Add to Cart” a new page will open where we can upload our PCB Gerber files (compressed RAR or ZIP format) and BOM file.
