Mattos Designs uses industry leading manufacturers to make their Pixels to our exacting specifications. All of our PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards) are separated using PCB routers to assure a clean cut, where other manufacturer's boards are manually snapped apart. The forces applied when separating PCBs in this manner have a tendency to weaken solder joints or break capacitors, which will result in a bad pixel. Additionally, we employ trained individuals who regularly visit our manufactures to perform spot inspections to assure that they are using our approved Fire Resistant Epoxy, routed circuit boards, and follow our exacting standards of production.
