InstantPCBQuote Shocks the Industry: No Tooling & Test Charges Ever


Release Date:

[May 5, 2014: New Bedford, MA] Epec Engineered Technologies announced today that they will be waiving tooling and test charges FOREVER on all rigid printed circuit board orders placed online through InstantPCBQuote.

InstantPCBQuote - Quote and Ordering Solution for Rigid PCBs

Epec developed InstantPCBQuote, a PCB quote and order tool in-house at the end of 2008. Over the past six years InstantPCBQuote's user base has exceeded expectations and is used by some of the top companies in the world as a solution for quoting and ordering circuit boards online 24/7.

Edward McMahon, CEO of Epec shared "Since the introduction of InstantPCBQuote we have seen tremendous acceptance in the marketplace and growth in the model. After refining the process we have been able to reduce the operating costs of InstantPCBQuote and want to pass those savings on to our customers. While tooling and test development are real costs in PCB manufacturing our cost savings in order processing and other areas allow us to waive these charges."

The benefits of InstantPCBQuote tool have distinctly altered the PCB industry. InstantPCBQuote is a fully developed "App", which contains individual user accounts, dynamic pricing, and streamlines the PCB quoting/ordering process. The site is clean and free from advertisements and stands by our message, "Our dynamic quoting tool allows you the option of designing the rigid PCB that you need, not the one that we want to build."

The change will drastically decrease PCB costs for our current online customers. Tooling and test charges can range anywhere from $200.00 - $1,000.00 depending on the layer count associated with the circuit board.

Kendall Paradise, President of Epec commented "It gives us great pleasure that we have reached a point in which we can give our customers a cost savings. At Epec we thrive on improving our conditions through process, people, and technology. Collectively we can increase the success of our overall operations."

With all the modifications and investments Epec has made to their InstantPCBQuote application over the past years, this is by far one that will have the most impact. This will truly make InstantPCBQuote the most flexible and user friendly online printed circuit board quote and ordering tool in the industry.
