Single-sided PCB
One track layer, one mask layer, legend on either side. The economical choice for lighting, power and high-volume consumer boards. Produced in-house.
Service 02
Boards in 24 hours, or 24,000 to a schedule.
Manufacturing assistance for quick-turn prototypes and bulk quantities — single-sided, multilayer plated-through-hole and aluminium metal-core PCBs.
Upload GerbersBoard types
Three constructions, one process discipline.
Raw material comes from certified vendors only. Our specifications can be customised to your requirement — tell us the constraint and we will confirm it in writing before the order.
Multilayer PTH
Plated-through-hole multilayer construction for dense, impedance-controlled designs — 4 mil track and gap, 0.25 mm finished holes, full electrical test.
Metal-core (aluminium)
Aluminium-clad boards that move heat out of high-power LEDs and switching devices, with 1–3 oz copper and thermal-aware pad design.
Technical specification
The process window, in full.
Standard capability for single and double-sided work. Higher layer counts run through vetted partners to the same documented process — ask us for the specific stack-up you need.

Data requirements
Get the files right and we never call you.
Almost every delay in fabrication traces back to ambiguous data. This is the checklist our CAM engineers work to.
We need Gerber 274X and an Excellon drill file. Please avoid 274D — if it is all you have, send the aperture file with it.
Double-sided
Layers required
- Two track layers — top and bottom
- Two mask layers — top and bottom
- Legend print — top and bottom
Single-sided
Layers required
- One track layer — top or bottom
- One mask layer — matching the track layer
- Legend print — top, bottom, or both
Always include
- Drill drawing, with PTH, NPTH and slot sizes defined
- Mechanical, routing or profile layer
- NC drill file in Excellon format
- Any special layers — gold tab, carbon, peel-off, paste
Two rules that save days
Name your layers plainly. A readable layer name or a short readme means nobody has to guess which copper is which.
Never mirror a layer. A PCB is viewed from the top down through the board — the industry standard. Text on the top side (copper, mask, legend) should read normally; text on the bottom side should read mirrored.
