In this factory tour, we'll be walking through the manual assembly and validation process of power supplies in Tainan, Taiwan, at the southern tip of the island. Power supplies go through PCB manufacturing, SMT lines, automatic optical inspection, validation, assembly, and then through testing. 100% of all power supplies made in this factory are thermally burned-in and tested on Chroma machine power supply testers. We also cover some of the packing, warranty, and box building in this tour. We've made a separate video of this factory showing the R&D process, coming up in a future video. PSU manufacturing uses SMT lines, manual assembly lines, Chroma testers, burn-in testing, and more.

Some of the videos won't matter to many and we're a small niche community so in the grand scheme of things very few will ever see these, but even if you knew you were going to only get 15,000 views on one of these videos for years I know you'd still go out of your way to produce them, most of us that watch this channel as often as possible appreciate it.

To me, power supply is the most fascinating part of a pc. If it's any good, quality wise, It should give stable and proper power as the need is constantly fluctuating , it should protect it from many threats (power surge, other components failure etc). All these matters are critical for the ecosystem. It's very underrated compared to other parts.

"PSUs have low failure ratings" - Its amazing how different realities coexist in the world. Im from Brazil, and most PSUs here are absolute crap, I had at least 5 PSUs exploding before I got into tech. Most manufacturers lie about the potency, efficiency,etc. We even have a group (Teclab) that tests a lot of PSUs and the vast majority is bellow spec, even from reputable brands (in the low end)

Not counterfeit, just cheap stuff. From small companies mostly, like c3tech, xigmatek, etc. Also the low end stuff from EVGA for example: they are not THAT bad, but they are not good. My evga 430w went bad after 3-4 years, the 12V rail was varying between 10.9 and 11.4V, so the gpu stopped working properly (but it didnt kill any component)

@PhantomMattcraft 4 жыл бұрын

Any cheap PSU whether from something random like you suggested, c3tech, or from Seasonic, is generally quite bad. If from a major seller they're generally not bad enough to explode (except Thermaltake and it's Litepower / 80+ bronze Smart series), however they still certainly will do dumb things potentially damaging the PC.

@MissingMew 4 жыл бұрын

30 qc steps is a lot more then i anticipated. good to know that my usual testing process is either ignoring the PSU or checking that last. except, of course, when the symptoms explicitly point towards it, like breakers ripping, the unit sparking and smoking or the system being reproducably unstable when loading multiple power hungry components simultaneously...

Thanks Steve and team. To me, this is the best factory video so far. PSUs are my favorite hardware component. My OCD loves how contained and uncluttered they are. I can't own anything less than a fully modular unit. The extra cables would irritate the sh*t outta me. I'm such a cable management freak. The rear exhaust fan on my X99 can only reach a mid-board header and even though I've got it perfectly trained and routed it has a couple inches of slack that doesn't seem to want to tuck in anywhere and it's just short of being able to wind it in with a quarter turn of the fan, aaaaaarg!

@Fix_It_Again_Tony 4 жыл бұрын

Great video. I really like content like this. Looking forward to the R&D episode. The soldering machine you show at 4:15 is performing a process called "wave" soldering. A large amount of solder is melted in a tray where the boards are dipped into it. This is for through hole components. You describe it well. Reflow soldering happens in a totally enclosed oven. This is the process that occurs directly after pick and place. The heat is ramped up to an initial plateau to activate the flux and then ramped again to about 250 C to melt the solder. This is for SMDs. Both are essential for a board using both through hole and SMT. The boards first have the SMDs placed and reflow soldered, and then the through hole components are placed and wave soldered. Once caveat is if you have a dual technology board, to utilize wave soldering there must be surface mount components only on the top side. Otherwise the wave soldering process would melt the solder attaching the bottom layer SMT components and they would be removed from the PCB. Notice at 4:40 the bottom of the board has no SMDs. Your description of the RMAs at about 16:15 is literally the same story as the history of how the term software "bug" was coined. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_bug#History

Once the company no longer exists there is no support or upgrade path but yet the hospital relies heavily on it. They refuse to use open source stuff "because we need support" but yet they don't have support, nor any ability to upgrade it because it's closed source.

It really shouldn’t have been mentioned. That’s a big security problem to have that published. (Even though the factory has not been named, we have been told detailed information about them which if invested in it, shouldn’t be too difficult to trace)
