What is remote PCB assembly?

Remote PCB assembly is a process where printed circuit boards (PCBs) are designed, assembled, and sometimes tested by a third-party manufacturer at a different location from the client. This service enables companies to submit their PCB designs online and have the assembly completed without being physically present. Remote PCB assembly offers benefits such as cost savings, access to specialized manufacturing equipment, and faster turnaround times. It's commonly used by electronics companies and startups that want to streamline production without investing in in-house assembly facilities.
