PCB Reverse Engineering

What is PCB reverse engineering?
Customers often come to us with a board or a finished product and require more of the same boards to be reproduced, this is where reverse engineering comes into play.
Reverse engineer PCBs are boards that are rebuilt from assembled products or circuit boards that may potentially be faulty and need replacing, or new PCBs designed to mimic the functionality of those you already have.

How do ABL reverse engineer a PCB?
We used technology to computer scan artwork, photos or circuit boards to produce CAD data for photo plotting to enable new PCB’s to be produced. This is a much more economical way of replacing the board and saves the costs involved in re-designing the CAD layout. It also ensures the new PCB will function just like the original, while removing any risk of errors.
Why not make an exact copy of the original PCB?
If we were to copy the board exactly, it would be both time consuming and expensive to source the old components previously used, rather than using new, improved components that are readily available. So whilst the new boards are produced to function and perform in the same way, or often better than the original, they are not an exact replica.
