Selecting the right PCB supplier is critical to the success of your electronic products. For businesses in the Midwest looking to move from concept to production smoothly, Midwest Printed Circuit Services (MPCS) offers the experience, technology, and personalized service you need. Below are key considerations—and reasons why MPCS should be your go-to PCB supplier.

Understand Your Project Needs

Every board begins with precise requirements. Whether you need a simple two-layer prototype or a high-density, multi-layer production run, it’s essential to know your design’s complexity, material specifications, and volume expectations. At MPCS, our technical team works with you to define these parameters, ensuring your project is scoped correctly, and any DFM (design-for-manufacturability) optimizations are identified early.

Why Midwest Printed Circuit Services Stands Out

Not all PCB suppliers are created equal. MPCS has over thirty years of Midwest manufacturing expertise, serving aerospace, medical, industrial, and consumer electronics clients. We combine regional understanding—such as local supply chain nuances and regulatory requirements—with global best practices. Our deep roots in the community translate into faster turnaround times, cost efficiencies, and a partner who truly “speaks your language.”

Advanced Manufacturing Capabilities

MPCS continually invests in state-of-the-art equipment—laser drilling, precision etching, automated optical inspection, and controlled lamination presses. These capabilities allow us to support anything from quick-turn prototypes to high-volume, rigid-flex, and high-frequency boards. Our flexible manufacturing lines adapt to your production scale, so you don’t pay for unused capacity or incur delays waiting for your turn.

Uncompromised Quality and Certifications

Quality is non-negotiable in electronics. Midwest Printed Circuit Services holds ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100D certifications, demonstrating our commitment to rigorous process controls and continuous improvement. We adhere to IPC-A-600 quality standards and perform 100% electrical testing on critical production runs. These robust quality measures minimize defects, reduce your risk in the field, and protect your brand reputation.

Local Advantages and Streamlined Logistics

Choosing a local PCB supplier like MPCS means shorter shipping distances, lower freight costs, and reduced lead times. Our proximity to major Midwest manufacturing hubs ensures that expedited jobs arrive in days, not weeks. Plus, being in the Central Time Zone simplifies real-time collaboration—whether via phone, video conference, or in-person visits—so you can resolve questions and iterate designs quickly.

Dedicated Support and Collaborative Communication

At MPCS, you’ll have a single point of contact who champions your project internally. From quoting through production, our customer success team provides clear, timely updates and proactive recommendations. We offer DFM reviews, material suggestions, and process insights that save you time and money. This hands-on approach prevents surprises and keeps your schedule on track.

Transparent Pricing and Reliable Lead Times

Cost transparency is essential. Midwest Printed Circuit Services delivers detailed quotes that break down setup, per-board costs, testing fees, and special processing charges. We balance competitive pricing with uncompromised quality—never sacrificing one for the other. Our published lead‐time commitments are realistic and backed by production data so that you can confidently plan launch dates and inventory levels.

Partnering for Long-Term Success

A PCB supplier should feel like an extension of your team. MPCS values long-term partnerships, offering scalable solutions as your volumes grow and request patterns evolve. Whether you’re a startup launching your first product or an established OEM seeking process optimizations, our Midwest-based expertise, modern facilities, and customer-centric approach make us the logical choice.
