SMT, through-hole, and mixed-tech assembly from prototype through production. SPI, AOI, and X-ray inline. Flying probe and bed-of-nails test. Conformal coat, underfill, programming, and serialization to your spec. Built to IPC-A-610 Class 2 and Class 3, J-STD-001 soldering.
PCB assembly, or PCBA, is the placement and soldering of components onto a fabricated board. RLX Solutions provides turnkey, kitted, and consigned PCB assembly in Canada, from prototype to production, with SMT, through-hole, and mixed-technology builds inspected to IPC-A-610 Class 2 and Class 3.
Send Gerbers, BOM, and pick-and-place files, and we handle the rest — component procurement, stencil, kitting, placement, reflow, inspection, test, and shipment. This is the most common workflow and removes your procurement team from the critical path. We source through authorized distribution with our verified excess-inventory network as backup for obsolete and allocated parts.
If you'd rather own procurement, we run kitted and consigned builds too. You supply parts (optionally with shortage coverage from our inventory), and we build, test, and ship. Either way, the build quality, inspection depth, and traceability are identical — IPC-A-610 Class 2 or Class 3 to your spec, with full lot and date-code capture per ISO 9001:2015.
For the complete assembly spec envelope (component sizes, PCB envelope, inspection, test, programming, conformal coat, ESD/MSD controls), see the Capability Reference on the home page.
Choose based on how much of the supply chain you want to own. All three get the same build and test quality.
Send your files. We procure all components, fabricate or source bare PCBs, build, test, and ship direct to you or your customer. Most common workflow.
You provide the controlled-source or custom components, we source the rest and build. Common for parts with strict supplier requirements.
You ship us a complete kit; we handle build, inspection, test, and ship. No procurement on our end. Useful if you already run a mature supply chain.
Tighter solder-joint, component-placement, and documentation requirements for medical, aerospace, and life-safety programs.
From stencil print to final X-ray — every PCB moves through the same process and the same people.
Multi-up panels with fiducials and test coupons move through stencil print, placement, and reflow as a single unit.
Mixed-tech boards, through-hole detail, and rework operations — IPC-J-STD-001 trained operators.
Every board under magnification, matched against IPC-A-610 Class 2 or Class 3 criteria before it ships.
Gerbers, BOM, pick-and-place. Engineer reads every inquiry, replies with pricing, lead time, DFM/DFA feedback, and any BOM flags.
