At MyAirbags we guarantee that every technician repairing your automotive parts is IPC certified. But what exactly does that mean and why is it important?

IPC – Association Connecting Electronics Industries

In 1957 the Institute for Printed Circuits was founded with the goal of standardizing production and repair of electronic equipment. As the technology continued to evolve and more electronic components were developed, the Institute went through a few name changes until 1999 when it was renamed “IPC – Association Connecting Electronics Industries”.

IPC – Industry Standards

When it comes to repairing your automotive electronics, you want to be sure that the technician is held to the high standards set for the industry. The only way to be certain that your technician is trained and up-to-date on the automotive electronics they are repairing is to choose someone that is IPC Certified. This certification means that our technicians are experts in the field, making sure that your part is fixed the right way, the first time. The journey to becoming IPC Certified is rigorous and in-depth. Only employing IPC Certified Technicians allows us to have pride in our work and proves how much we value our customers.

IPC Standards in Every Step of Manufacturing & Repair of PCB’s

Before your Airbag Module, ABS Module, or other Automotive Electronic module makes it to a MyAirbags technician it has already gone through a thorough IPC standardized manufacturing process.  Leaders in the industry form committees to develop the best practices for the entire lifecycle of a Printed Circuit Board (PCB). This includes the types of materials that need to be used, the assembly process, and testing methods. Because technology is continuously evolving, the IPC standards are also continuously evolving. This means that your IPC certified technician receives ongoing training to keep them up-to-date on the industry’s highest standards of work.
