Production
Like it? We make it.
Operating on a total area of almost 8000 sq m in our two Italian plants in Moncalieri and Barone Canavese, we are able to manage the entire electronic system production process ourselves, becoming for all purposes a 'one-stop-shop' working to create cutting-edge solutions to enhance your success.
Production of electronic boards
- SMT (Surface Mounting Technology) and THT (Through Hole Technology)
- Automatic welding of PTH components with wave machines to reduce production time and ensure a consistent production result
The manual assembly of electronic boards is handled by experienced and highly trained staff spread over a number of assembly lines.
Assembly and testing
All boards produced are subjected to different levels of inspection, such as automatic optical inspection (AOI) and BGA inspection, for reliable verification that each component has been properly welded.
The production of an electronic board ends with testing to make sure it functions optimally by certifying its reliability. In our two plants, we offer different types of testing, right up to the construction of the test bench:
- ICT, Flying Probe and functional testing on boards
- Conformal Coating, to improve electrical insulation and protect the boards against the various environmental factors that could compromise their functionality.
- Run-in/Burn-in and functional testing to verify the durability of the complete electronic system even under extreme environmental conditions, ensuring delivery of a highly reliable product
We support you post-production too.
In addition to complete production management, we offer the expertise of laboratories dedicated to prototyping, maintenance and repair of products up to 20 years old:
- Prototyping/pre-production
- Obsolescence management and product repair
- Reverse engineering
- Technical documentation/manuals
FAQ
Prima Electro operates as an ODM and EMS “one-stop-shop”, offering fully integrated management of the entire electronic production process. With a total area of nearly 8,000 sqm across its two Italian plants in Moncalieri (dedicated to electronics and production) and Barone Canavese (system assembly and testing), plus a hub in China (Suzhou), the company ensures industrial-scale production capacity (up to 250,000 boards per year and 3.2 million SMD components per month), supporting clients from initial concept through to series production and long-term support.
Prima Electro’s production sites integrate advanced technologies for board assembly, including Surface Mounting Technology (SMT) and Through Hole Technology (THT), supported by automatic wave soldering lines for PTH components that reduce lead times and ensure consistent results. Manual assembly is also handled by highly qualified staff across multiple production lines.
To ensure maximum reliability, every board and electronic system undergoes rigorous levels of in-house inspection. The process includes Automated Optical Inspection (AOI), X-Ray and BGA inspection to verify solder joints, and in-depth electrical testing such as ICT, Flying Probe and Functional Testing (FCT). Conformal Coating treatments are also applied for environmental protection and electrical insulation, along with Run-in and Burn-in testing to validate system resistance even under extreme conditions.
Prima Electro adopts a flexible, scalable production model that adapts to the maturity, complexity and volumes required by the client. The offering ranges from the rapid creation of prototypes and pre-series for validation, to the management of low volumes, on-demand or customised production for unique needs, through to repeatable, scalable series production for recurring industrial volumes, also covering configurable product families.
In addition to production, Prima Electro offers dedicated laboratories for support throughout the product lifecycle (Product Lifecycle Services) for a period that can extend up to 20 years. Services include active management of component obsolescence, repair and refurbishment to restore device functionality, reverse engineering to replicate legacy electronics, product upgrades, and the preparation of technical documentation and manuals.
