Can you comment on how much effort is being put into automating the board design, and how soon you think the design fee is likely to drop?

Can you comment on how much effort is being put into automating the board design, and how soon you think the design fee is likely to drop?
- jahnellp 6y agoI think you are asking exactly what efforts are put into the board once someone designs it in ALC. To be honest: it primarily goes through the same general steps as most of our boards - ALC Operations Team designs it; PCBs are ordered; once PCBs are received, it goes through the pick & place, reflow, inspection, and packaging; finally, the boards are sent using our standard fulfillment/shipping. Does that help?
- jstanley 6y agoI was more asking about "ALC Operations Team designs it" - the obvious goal would be for you to automate as much of this as possible, I just wondered how much work (if any) has gone into that so far, even if it's not being used yet on customer boards.
- AtHeartEngineer 6y agoYa this is what I was thinking this was when I first saw it, until I saw the price.
