Hi Everyone! Does anyone out there use a standard price per placement when quoting an SMT PCB? What is the industry standard if any? The cost per placement would cover the complete process of applying paste, machine placement of components, and running through the oven. Other cost would be added. I may be out of bounds with this question, so if you would like, e-mail me offline.
