Contract Electronics Manufacturer, Cambridge
As a contract electronics manufacturer based near Cambridge UK, Prima Group brings to the East Anglia region over 22 years of electronic manufacturing experience. Offering a wide range of electronic manufacturing services, including printed circuit board assembly (PCB assembly), surface mount assembly, and conventional electronics assembly, Prima specialises in electronic manufacturing development from prototype, through NPI and full production of medium size batches (20 - 400) of complex and non-complex electronics products.
Automated Storage and Kitting
The benefits associated with automated storage include:
- All parts issued on a FIFO basis.
- All parts stored & retrieved under automated control
- All parts bar-coded when loaded into the system thereby increases control of storage and retrieval
- Pick lists bar-coded to reduce picking errors
Fine Pitch Solder Pasting
One of the cornerstones of reliable board building is ensuring that when the solder paste is applied to the pads on the board that exactly the correct amount of paste is put down, and in the right place.
Surface Mount Assembly
Prima has a policy of constantly renewing its investment in equipment in order to be able to offer the best solution to the growing changes in surface mount technologies.

Vapour Phase
Recognising that conventional reflow techniques are not always the best to use for lead free boards Prima has invested in Vapour Phase soldering.
Control of Reflow
With forced air reflow soldering it is important to have consistent temperature control in the heating zones so that correct ramp up and ramp down profiles can be achieved.
Automatic Optical Inspection
Over the last 10 years or so Automatic Optical Inspection AOI of both solder joints and component placement has developed and grown to become a tool of real value for manufacturers.
Beset by issues of false failures, or worse, false passes, whilst providing some benefits these machines were treated with a degree of scepticism, and they were very hard to programme.
This is no longer the case.
AOI can be programmed directly from the original CAD files, so that programme generation is a very fast activity. Yields have improved enormously to the extent that the results can now almost always be relied upon with confidence, and solder joints even for lead free joints are reliable.
The machine is therefore used to examine solder joints for visual integrity, skewed or misplaced parts, missing parts, tombstoned parts and other potential process induced problems.
Through Hole Build
We have people who are certified IPC trained trainers, and whose knowledge and skills are passed on to new recruits.
Flying Probe Test
At some point in the manufacturing process the board needs to be tested to ensure that the elements that make up the board are working to specification, so that when it comes to powering it up there will be a high level of confidence that it will function.
X-Ray Inspection
Pre reflow
Boundary Scan Test
One of the more problematical issues surrounding board building has grown to be the use of higher and higher pin count BGA's.
