ExpressPCB Launches New Low Cost, Fast Turn PCB Initiative
March 1, 2016 | Business WireEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
ExpressPCB, whose mission is to provide software and manufacturing solutions for low cost, fast turnaround prototyping, has just announced new promotional pricing for its MiniBoard and MiniBoardPro Services. The MiniBoard and MiniBoardPro manufacturing services offer low cost and fast turnaround on high quality, 2-4-layer PCBs.
For design engineers with less complex PCB prototypes that need to be completed in a hurry, ExpressPCB CAD Software combined with Miniboard and MiniBoardPro manufacturing is the solution of choice. With these tools, engineers can design PCBs quickly in the easiest PCB Design Software available and order right within the program.
ExpressPCB is also announcing the addition of UPS Ground Shipping. This new service provides a lower cost shipping option for customers.
In addition, ExpressPCB is now actively registered with System for Award Management (SAM), the Official U.S. Government system that consolidated the capabilities of CCR/FedReg, ORCA, and EPLS.
“I have been using the service for over 18 years, for rapid prototyping, and small production runs. I think the ease of use and quality/price/speed are most compelling. The employees at ExpressPCB really make the difference, as they provide excellent support for any questions that come up.”
James Edward Smith, Senior Embedded Systems Engineer
ExpressPCB has worked hard over the years to streamline processes to be as efficient as possible. This allows ExpressPCB to pass savings on to their customers, supporting their mission to help Design Engineers quickly bring their ideas to life with their free CAD Software and the lowest manufacturing cost possible. Time is money, so waiting weeks just to get prototype PCBs onto the test bench can have a huge impact on a project.
ExpressPCB MiniBoard and MiniBoardPro manufacturing services are a part of ExpressPCB’s comprehensive manufacturing solutions including ProtoPro and Production services.
