Production and processing of FR-4 groove
Not long ago, the customer in Singapore who ordered the FR-4 groove last year called to place an order. This call reminded me of some twists and turns in making the FR-4 groove. Let me share with you:
At that time, the Singapore customer said that they wanted to process a batch of FR-4 sheet slots and asked if we could do it. I answered extremely relaxed: Sir, please don’t worry. We've done quite a bit of this kind of g10 fr4 groove already, so there's no need to worry about it.
But when we received the drawings from the Singaporean client, we were stunned, because this is not an ordinary FR-4 slot. As it is for foreign customers, the precision of this FR-4 sheet slot is quite high, and color difference is not allowed. In addition, FR-4 has very strict sheet thickness tolerances, which require milling to meet customer requirements. In this case, several technicians of our company ZTelec Group made a very careful assessment and estimation, considering the requirements of high precision. As soon as we quoted our price, the customer got angry and said it was a pure insincere offer. At that time, several technicians were very frustrated, but after communicating with the customer again, we found that we should adjust the processing technology and cognition of FR-4 slot, so we made a second quotation. But the customer is still not satisfied, they think there is still a price gap, and the technology does not give them enough confidence. Therefore, the technical director of ZTelec Group made several samples by himself. After the product was made, he found that many processes could be simplified and some could be improved. Therefore, we adjusted the price for the third time and finally reached an agreement with the customer. The FR4 groove sample was shown to the customer, and they were quite satisfied. At that time, they said that it was right to find ZTelec Group to do FR-4 slot.
If you also have FR-4 sheet slot products to be processed, if you are also worried about not finding a suitable and reliable FR-4 processing manufacturer, if you happen to see this article, then please believe -- ZTelec Group.
