Methods and materials

## How it is done.

The methods Indian factories run under electronics & assembly, and the materials they work in.

### Methods

  * SMT assembly
  * Through-hole and wave soldering
  * Selective soldering
  * AOI and X-ray inspection
  * In-circuit and functional testing
  * Conformal coating
  * Box build and final assembly
  * Wire harness and cable assembly
  * Firmware loading

### Materials

  * [Brass, copper and bronze](https://sourcesquid.co/india-atlas/materials/brass-and-copper/)
  * [Engineering plastics (ABS, PC, nylon)](https://sourcesquid.co/india-atlas/materials/engineering-plastics/)
  * [Aluminium](https://sourcesquid.co/india-atlas/materials/aluminium/)

Typical MOQ
    Often 500–1,000 boards per SMT run; prototypes of 10–50 boards are possible at a higher unit cost.

Buying tips

## Buy it with confidence.

What experienced buyers put in the RFQ and check on arrival.

  * Share a complete BOM with approved alternates, because component availability drives lead time.
  * Agree test coverage (ICT, functional test) and who builds and owns the test jig.
  * Plan destination certification early: CE or UKCA for Europe and the UK, FCC and UL for the US, RCM for Australia and New Zealand.

Electronics & assembly questions

## Straight answers.

Anything else, ask us directly. A principal replies, not a bot.

[anirudh@sourcesquid.co](mailto:anirudh@sourcesquid.co)

### Is India a good place for PCB assembly?

Yes. India has a fast-growing EMS base in Noida, Chennai, Bengaluru and Hyderabad, supported by government incentive schemes. It suits high-mix, low to medium volume work as well as growing high-volume lines.

### Can Indian EMS companies source components?

Most offer turnkey sourcing through authorised distributors, and many also accept consigned parts. Ask for traceability to authorised channels.

### What standards do Indian EMS providers work to?

IPC-A-610 for assembly workmanship and IPC/WHMA-A-620 for harnesses are common. State the class (2 or 3) in your order.
