Turnkey
Turnkey Electronic Manufacturing (Turnkey PCBA)
Single-source project management including PCB, components, assembly, firmware loading and test; from idea to volume production.
Turnkey electronic manufacturing brings every step of a hardware project, from PCB supply and component sourcing to SMT/THT assembly, firmware loading, functional test and final assembly, together at a single manufacturer. SMT Labs runs this chain with one point of contact and one project plan; you take delivery of the result.
What the scope includes
- PCB fabrication and supply (1-64 layers)
- Component sourcing and alternative management against the BOM
- SMD and THT assembly, AOI and test
- Firmware / software loading and serial-number registration
- Functional test and, where needed, a test jig
- Box-build: cabling, mechanical assembly, final product test and packaging
One point of contact, one plan
You do not manage the PCB maker, the component supplier, the assembly shop and the assembler separately. A dedicated account manager brings every step into a single lead-time plan; responsibility sits in one place.
From prototype to volume
The first sample batch is simplified with DFM feedback; the approved design moves to series production with the same parameters. Revisions are tracked with a version record.

How a turnkey project starts
- 01Describe the projectSend Gerber, BOM, mechanical data, test and software requirements with the target quantity.
- 02Scope and quoteEvery step is bound into a single plan; price, lead time and milestones are sent within 24 hours.
- 03Sample batchThe first batch is produced, tested and delivered together with DFM feedback.
- 04Series productionThe approved design goes into series with the same parameters; shipping is managed from one point.
Turnkey manufacturing FAQ
- What is the difference between turnkey and piece-by-piece service?
- In piece-by-piece service you coordinate PCB, components, assembly and box-build. In turnkey, SMT Labs takes on that coordination, the fit risk and single-lead-time delivery.
- Do you also do firmware loading and functional test?
- Yes. Firmware loading, serial-number registration and functional test are in scope; a project-specific test jig is built if needed.
- Will you work turnkey for a prototype only?
- Yes. You can start with a single sample batch, see the result and move to series through the same process.
- I have no design yet, only an idea. Can we still start?
- We start the conversation with whatever documentation you have; if the design is incomplete, the engineering support team clarifies the gaps and then we move to production.
