From design to delivery with an end-to-end manufacturing partner
SMT and PCB assembly are among the expertise you can leverage when you work with Genimex. Our team handles component sourcing, design and engineering partnership, factory audits, and quality assurance, creating accountability across the entire production timeline from product development through mass production.
What are PCB and SMT assembly?
A printed circuit board (PCB) assembly mounts electronic components onto a circuit board to create functional devices. Surface-mount technology (SMT) places components directly on the board's surface, enabling compact designs at scale. SMT largely replaces through-hole technology (THT), which involves inserting component pins through drilled holes. THT is optimal for products requiring mechanical stability.
SMT and PCB capabilities and processes
Genimex manages electronics manufacturing services across product categories, with capabilities spanning the complete production life cycle. Our capabilities include:
SMT and THT assembly
Our manufacturing partners operate advanced SMT assembly lines capable of placing fine-pitch components, ball grid arrays, and microelectronics with controlled accuracy. For products requiring mechanical strength, we integrate THT assembly to create hybrid boards.
Component sourcing and management
Genimex manages strategic procurement and supply chain visibility. We source from authorized distributors, verify component authenticity, and maintain controls that prevent counterfeit parts from entering production.
Quality control and testing
We implement automated optical inspection (AOI) to verify component orientation and solder joint formation. Our quality protocol employs X-ray inspection to reveal hidden connections beneath BGAs and complex packages, and we coordinate functional testing to validate electrical performance against design specifications.
Certifications and compliance
Genimex ensures your PCB assembly services meet IPC-A-610 workmanship standards. We navigate RoHS restrictions, REACH compliance, and UL certifications, coordinating documentation and testing for regulatory approval in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Australia.
Ensuring quality throughout SMT and PCB services
From DFM design reviews and component authentication through to AOI inspection, X-ray testing, and final validation at scale, quality control is built into every stage of the Genimex process.

FAQs
Provide PCB design files (Gerber, ODB++, etc.), your Bill of Materials (BOM) with component specifications, and assembly drawings showing component placement. If you’re working with us as a partner throughout your design process, we will already be involved in material selection and component placement.
Turnkey PCB assembly means Genimex manages component procurement, PCB fabrication, and assembly. Consigned assembly requires you to supply all components and bare boards.
An end-to-end partner like Genimex goes beyond basic PCB assembly, integrating DFM expertise, quality management, and global sourcing capabilities. We can work with you to identify cost-reduction opportunities and prevent design-related manufacturing issues.
