As a leading European supplier, Multi-CB focuses on efficient solutions that save you time and effort. Multi-CB offers automation for every PCB requirement: from a few orders per year to several orders per hour.
Find out in this news:
1. What advantages consistent automation brings you,
2. How Multi-CB together with Luminovoenables assemblers to save up to 80% of time and
3. How you can implement your customised PCB solution with our software interface (API).
1. Your advantages thanks to consistent automation
PCB procurement is complex. Express production and deadlines ensure a high level of dynamism, which means that in borderline cases, it all comes down to minutes. Multi-CB supports you in this complex and dynamic environment with valuable automation:
The automatic reading of your PCB CAD file in our online calculatorsaves time & avoids errors. Some PCB parameters are automatically recognised and highlighted in blue (auto-fill). Gerber data is also read out for you by our specially developed AI (artificial intelligence). An auto-fill is performed and PCB preview images are generated. In addition, you receive immediate online feedback if parameters are in conflict (e.g. white legend print on white solder-stop).
Even after sending your order, you benefit from Multi-CB's high level of internal automation. To give you an example: In the CAM department, we rely on a combination of strong automation thanks to scripts and AI, as well as the years of experience of our CAM engineers. This means that the technical parameters of the PCB are optimally taken into account for production, thereby achieving the best possible utilisation of the production lines.
The consistently very high degree of automation enables an otherwise unattainably attractive price with short production times, with high-tech inclusive parameters.
2. Luminovo & Multi-CB: PCBs at the touch of a button
Luminovo is a software for assemblers / EMS service providers. With Luminovo , the assembler automates the preparation of quotations for the assembled PCBs. The procurement of PCBs and components also runs via Luminovo with a very high degree of automation. For this purpose, Luminovo offers software interfaces (APIs) to PCB suppliersto component distributors and to the ERP systems of assemblers.
Due to multiple customer requests, the Multi-CB interface was integrated into the Luminovo software.
From now on, Luminovo users will be able to see Multi-CB's price and production time in the Luminovo software. The information can be processed directly in the Luminovo software. Orders can be placed in Luminovo at the touch of a button. Complex special technologies can be requested from Multi-CB via Luminovo.
The advantages for Luminovo users:
- Luminovo automates quotation generation and component & PCB procurement - including direct Multi-CB prices and delivery times without manual calculation.
- Up to 80% time saving when preparing quotations for the assembled PCB (according to Luminovo).
- Particularly worthwhile for high assembly volumes or similar use cases (e.g. OEMs).

Does Multi-CB now offer assembled PCBs?
No, Multi-CB's product range still consists of bare Printed Circuit Boards, SMD-Stencils and Toroidal Transformers.
Are you already using Luminovo?
Simply send us an email with your Multi-CB login number.
We will activate the interface for you.
Multi-CB customers can use the Multi-CB PCB calculator as usual.
Luminovo users can also access Multi-CB as a manufacturer directly in Luminovo.
3. Multi-CB API: Customised automation for your software
Do you want maximum efficiency? Integrate the Multi-CB interface (API) directly into your ERP/ordering system. This gives you direct access to our favourable prices and short delivery times. Orders can also be placed automatically via the API, including transmission of production data.
Customer requirements: The Multi-CB API requires experienced software development and well-maintained PCB specifications on your part. The Multi-CB API is particularly suitable for PCB dealers, distributors, major customers (e.g. EMS) and PCB manufacturers who can expand their product range thanks to Multi-CB.
The Multi-CB API has already been successfully used by some customers for several months. In addition to the API, our high-performance software development enables rapid realisation of customer-specific requirements.
