Testing & Quality Control for Security Equipment PCBAs
Security devices are often installed in locations where maintenance is difficult and downtime is unacceptable. For security equipment PCB assembly, quality and reliability are critical.
APTPCB integrates multiple inspection and test stages into the PCBA process for security applications.
Key PCBA Quality Steps:
- SPI (Solder Paste Inspection): Ensures correct solder paste volume and alignment, reducing solder-related defects on fine-pitch and dense SMD areas
- AOI (Automated Optical Inspection): Checks component presence, type, polarity, placement and visible solder joints after reflow
- X-Ray Inspection (As Needed): Inspects hidden solder joints under BGA, LGA, QFN and power packages used in SoCs, RF modules and power supplies
- In-Circuit Test (ICT) / Flying Probe (When Designed In): Verifies electrical connectivity and component values where test points and fixtures are available
- Functional Test (FCT): Runs power-up and product-specific tests—such as sensor triggering, relay operation, network communication or video output—according to your test specification
- Final Quality Inspection & Traceability: Confirms labels, revision, cosmetic quality and packing, with lot-level or board-level traceability to support service and field quality analysis
This layered PCBA quality & testing approach supports consistent performance from engineering samples to volume production. For security equipment manufacturers, it means more predictable field behavior, fewer technical callouts and a stronger reputation for reliability.
