Low-volume PCB assembly in the US is broken. Lead times stretch into weeks. Costs are high. And the cheap overseas option means waiting on revisions, dealing with out-of-stock parts, and no real visibility into what's happening on the line.

Pikkolo is fixing that.

The approach is automation — using ML and vision systems to eliminate the manual overhead that makes small-run assembly so expensive. Setting up a pick-and-place machine for a 50-part board takes over an hour of tedious, error-prone work. Vision systems can do it in seconds. Component validation, feeder configuration, rotation analysis — the stuff that adds days to a job — automated.

The goal is boards assembled in hours or days, not weeks, at a price that makes sense for hardware teams actually iterating on a product.

We've assembled boards for submarine sensor systems, safety equipment, robotics — work where fast domestic turnaround genuinely matters.
Building in Colorado. Working toward same-day assembly.

If your team is tired of waiting on boards, or you want to follow along as we build — we'd love to connect.
