content: Sorry for bombing the Chat Forum so much, but after the success of the components threadhereI could not resist, here we go again with the PCB Manufacturing side...I found these (unfortunately only in German), really well done:http://www.mikrocontroller.net/articles/Platinenherstellerhttp://wiki69.pst69.homeip.net/index.php/PlatinenerstellungBasically I will try to put all your feedbacks here below:http://www.hegergmbh.com/en/really good quality PCB's, can even read my PADS fileshttps://www.haka-lp.de/home.htmlThey do good work, I always got good quality! They accept Target, Eagle and Gerber files.http://www.wedirekt.de/specialized on large batches, Good quality, fast, a lot of options and cheaper then expected. The "free" Stencil is not bad at all.http://www.jlp.de/Standard small ordershttp://www.elekonta.de/Standard small ordershttp://www.leiton.de/more complicated stuff/material choiceshttp://www.fischer-leiterplatten.de/small/private projectshttp://www.andus.de/index.en.phpVERY FAST, but also VERY Expensivehttp://eurocircuits.com/Their online PCB Visualizer is the special distinguishing feature to all other manufacturers. You can upload your gerber.rar and the PCB Visualizer displays all layers and points to errors. It does a DRC and DFM check and later this year a pre-CAM check.http://www.seeedstudio.com/service/index.php?r=pcbcheap chinese stuffAgain thank you so much you are amazing.PS: I promise I will not post anything else with that title.

content: Hello,where in Germany are you living?It really makes a difference if you can pick up your PCBs in Berlin or are at the "arse of the world"Is the PCB for prototypes or series?If you really need id fast you should consider ANDUS Berlin.(but dont complain about the price for that service).Standard small orders I have mostly done at Jenaer Leiterplatten or Elekonta.http://www.jlp.de/http://www.elekonta.de/The already mentioned Würth (wedirekt) is more specialized on large batches.Delivery time might be (slightly) affected by a fire end of last year in one of their fabs.http://www.elektroniknet.de/elektronikfertigung/fertigungstechnik/artikel/115929/http://www.bild.de/regional/stuttgart/stuttgart-regional/grossfeuer-zerstoert-wuerth-werk-39127754.bild.htmlIf only the price matters and delivery time is no concern you can also orderfrom one of the chinese manufacturers.With best regardsAndreas

content: Q: are these firms anywhere price competitive with the chinese pcb manufacturers or are time and "made in Germany" the deciding factors to go with these manufacturers ?

content: I use either Eurocircuits (professional) or Seeedstudio (if it has to be cheap).Eurocircuits is easy to work with and they are not very expensive. Their are somewhere in Europe but they do meet their delivery dates every time.

content: Did you ask for some special hobbiest offers, also?I would have one or may be two. But I'm not sure if I should advertise here, because I'm in doubt they would have been overrun by the overhelming flood of requests.
