WHAT WILL YOU PROTOTYPE NEXT?
DEVELOPING ANTENNAS OR
RF CIRCUITS?
From your design to a precision-milled prototype. Explore real antenna patterns made with MIPEC technology.
TEST YOUR PCB DESIGN
PROTOTYPE WHEN YOU NEED IT
Move from PCB design to a physical prototype directly in your own laboratory, without relying on an external fabrication cycle for every revision.
KEEP YOUR DATA IN-HOUSE
Keep PCB manufacturing data and prototype boards within your development environment when internal processing is important to the project.
ITERATE IN-HOUSE
Manufacture, evaluate and revise prototype boards within the same development environment as your electronic design and testing.
COMPLETE SOLUTION. ONE WORKFLOW.
Connect PCB milling and drilling with through-hole connection, solder paste application, component placement and reflow.
FIND THE RIGHT PCB MILLING MACHINE
ACCELERATE PCB PROTOTYPING IN YOUR LAB
Turn your PCB design into a physical board, assemble the prototype and test the next revision in your own lab.
- Gerber and Excellon data for PCB project preparation.
- Mechanical milling and drilling without chemical etching.
- Assembly equipment for component placement and reflow.
REAL RESULTS. REAL PCB PROTOTYPES.

Actual PCB samples manufactured with MIPEC equipment.
THE MIPEC WORKFLOW
FROM GERBER FILE TO FINISHED PCB IN SIX STEPS
Follow the board through six connected operations, from preparing manufacturing data to reflowing the assembled prototype.
01
CAM & DATA PREP
Import Gerber and Excellon files into TrackMaker, define machining operations and check the toolpaths. →
02
MILLING & DRILLING
Mill isolation paths, drill holes and cut the final board outline with 4MILL CNC systems. →
03
THROUGH-HOLE CONNECTION
Create electrical connections between both PCB sides using mechanically fitted conductive rivets. →
04
SOLDER PASTE APPLICATION
Print solder paste through a stencil or dispense it pneumatically to suit the board and assembly. →
05
COMPONENT PLACEMENT
Place SMD components manually with vacuum pickup, visual assistance and optional feeders. →
06
SOLDERING & REFLOW
Reflow the populated board with a controlled thermal profile suited to the solder paste and assembly. →
WHAT MAKES MIPEC DIFFERENT
From PCB Milling to a Complete SMT Prototype
FROM PCB MILLING TO A COMPLETE SMT WORKFLOW
Expand your laboratory step by step. Add solder paste application, component placement and reflow as your requirements grow.

CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE
“
I would like to thank you very much for taking part in the project. It was a great benefit for me personally. Even when things had to be solved quickly and adjusted along the way, from my point of view everything was always handled perfectly. I really appreciate the excellent communication, and I would be very happy to work together again in the future.
PCB MACHINING EVALUATION
TEST YOUR PCB DESIGN WITH MIPEC
Considering a MIPEC PCB milling machine? Evaluate the machining result on your own design before choosing your equipment.
Send your Gerber and Excellon files and tell us how you plan to use the machine. We review each request and agree the sample scope before machining.
Approved sample machining and detailed result photos are free.
Physical samples can be shipped on request. Shipping is quoted and paid before dispatch. The shipping amount paid is deducted from the price of a subsequent MIPEC milling machine purchase.
- 01 Your design & needs
- 02 Review & machining
- 03 Result photos
Companies, schools and individual buyers are welcome. Any promotional use of sample photographs requires your prior agreement.
