About MacroFab, Inc.

MacroFab, Inc. operates from Houston, Texas, where it runs a digital platform for printed circuit board assembly backed by its own qualified U.S. manufacturing facilities. The company does not disclose its founding year or ownership structure in public materials. The service covers the full PCB lifecycle: fabrication (2–36 layers, HDI, controlled impedance, blind/buried/micro vias), assembly (through-hole, SMD, BGA, 01005 components, conformal coating, epoxy potting, IPC-A-610 Class 2/3 and J-STD-001 workmanship), and component sourcing (turnkey, consignment, alternative parts, lifecycle management). Customers span industrial controls (PLCs, automation hardware), drones and autonomous systems (flight controllers, ESCs, RF hardware), test and measurement (precision analog, high-speed digital), and defense/ITAR programs (export-controlled, DPAS-rated orders). Case studies reference Dresser Utility Solutions, VOTRONICS PREMIER, Octavo Systems, Broms Technologies, MannKind, Probe, and Task Force Tips. MacroFab differentiates itself as the only ITAR-registered self-service PCB assembly platform, combining instant quoting and AI-driven design feedback with U.S.-based human support—each account gets a dedicated manager. Its vetted factory network, production continuity from prototype to volume, and single-platform visibility for BOMs, orders, and quality data are presented as core advantages.
