If you are developing a cost model for quotation/estimation purposes, we would recommend time studying a handful of existing jobs/set up's that you have, and averaging your actual CPM rate. Then determining your cost to operate from there. This wil

Thanks for your help guys! No, I do not expect a Ferrari at this low budget, we are not contract manufacturers, but only producing our own devices in the area of industrial control and measurement. And we do not expect to have 402 parts in the near f

I'm assuming that 18k components per month represents less than 100 boards per month. I've worked for both OEMs and CEMs and if your design is stable and your volumes are relatively stable I would highly recommend going with a CEM given the low volum

Now you are going too deep. Purchasing should have nothing to do with your placement cost. Reducing part numbers too. These are separate processes and should be evaluated separately. You have: 1. Machine time and cost -utilities -maintenance -consu
