Surface Mount Technology

RVL’s technical capabilities have developed over time according to changing customer requirements. For example, perhaps you are looking for surface mount capability? Our Mycronic MY300-DX pick-and-place machine can place components from 01005 size up to more than 50mm square QFP, including uBGA sizes with high speed and accuracy. With spaces up to 224 feeders and built-in fast set-up times, our production capacity has been doubled since the installation of this equipment. If required, for ultimate quality this machine can test and check every single resistor and capacitor before placement.

We can convert through-hole boards to surface mount, as this reduces board size and sometimes end product size. As a consequence, we can improve your electronics manufacturing costs, while creating a repeatable quality standard with no variance, thereby ensuring better availability of parts.

Inspection Equipment

To further enhance quality and reliability, every assembly can be inspected using our Mirtec 3D Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) system. Utilising advanced 3D inspection technology, it accurately verifies component presence, placement, polarity, solder quality and coplanarity, enabling defects to be identified quickly and consistently throughout the production process.

For assemblies with concealed solder joints, our Seamark X-ray inspection system provides detailed, non-destructive inspection of BGAs, QFNs and other hidden connections that cannot be assessed using optical inspection alone. This allows us to verify solder integrity, identify voids, bridges and insufficient solder, providing an additional level of quality assurance for complex and high-reliability electronic assemblies.

Complementary Services

In order to provide a complete end-to-end service, RVL can also provide complementary services. With choices of Heller multi-stage reflow or IBL vapour phase soldering for dense or high mix type boards, we have the complete surface mount assembly solution for all your low to medium surface mount needs. In addition, we often assist clients with cable and harness wiring, electro-mechanical assembly and full box builds.

Start-up businesses need partner companies and suppliers to be agile and many times those start-ups are not operating to a controlled process. Knowing this and given Pulsiv is a start-up company, we were looking for a vertically integrated design and manufacturing partner to provide initial samples who has the ability to move in an agile fashion, but keeping to a controlled process. RVL have managed to achieve this and outperform my expectations.

To put this in context, RVL were given an unfrozen design from which they started layout, they managed to control the 112 changes and ultimately manufacture the board on time such that it operated first time without issue. The team worked long hours, but always kept process control running to make sure that quality was maintained resulting in a working board straight off production line.
