Through-Hole Assembly

Through-Hole Assembly Manufacturing Advantage

In-house Integration

Complete in-house through-hole assembly capabilities from component insertion to wave soldering, ensuring quality control at every stage.

Advanced Equipment

State-of-the-art wave soldering and selective soldering equipment for reliable through-hole solder joints.

Multiple Assembly Methods

Wave soldering, selective soldering, hand soldering, and press-fit technology to suit different component and production requirements.

Through-Hole Assembly Production Excellence

Wave Soldering

Efficient wave soldering for standard through-hole components in production runs with consistent solder joint quality.

Selective Soldering

Precision selective soldering for mixed-technology boards where only specific through-hole parts need soldering.

Press-Fit Technology

Press-fit technology for connector insertion without solder, providing replaceable connections with excellent mechanical strength.

Hand Soldering

Expert hand soldering for prototype boards, odd-form components, and repair work requiring manual precision.

Through-Hole Assembly FAQ

When should I use through-hole instead of surface mount components?

Through-hole components are preferred for applications requiring strong mechanical bonds, high current carrying capacity, or easy replacement. They are ideal for connectors, transformers, and components subject to mechanical stress.

Can you do mixed SMT and through-hole assembly on the same board?

Yes, we regularly produce mixed-technology boards. SMT components are assembled first, followed by through-hole insertion and wave or selective soldering.
