Summit Interconnect Quick-turn PCB Assembly

Full turnkey assembly The turnkey PCB assembly process from Summit is a convenient, personal service experience you won’t find anywhere else. When you place a full turnkey order, our teams order your PCBs from one of our fabrication shops, source and purchase your components, and then machine-assemble your build. No need for multiple vendors, pieces or parts. One purchase order and one price. No calculating right number of parts. Smoother, more efficient assembly. We are accountable for the entire process! Additional services Some of our customers still prefer to order their parts. This is absolutely fine. We are built for flexibility.
