{"id":108343,"title":"Axal: Designing and Getting PCB's in China is Dead","tagline":"We help companies design and assemble their board in days","body":"We are launching Axal, a services company that designs, assembles, and tests custom PCBs for hardware startups in days. American manufacturing is back. 🇺🇸\n\nAxal enables hardware teams to get custom PCBs designed and built in the U.S. without needing electrical engineers on staff.\n\nWe’ve helped teams go from no PCB design to a working board delivered in as little as two weeks.\n\nIt’s ridiculous that American hardware startups have to go overseas just to get a PCB designed and built affordably. Together, we can change that and build more hardware in America.","slug":"SBT-axal-designing-and-getting-pcb-s-in-china-is-dead","created_at":"2026-07-30T06:10:46.886Z","updated_at":"2026-09-19T06:51:26.958Z","total_vote_count":2,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/SBT-axal-designing-and-getting-pcb-s-in-china-is-dead","share_image_url":"//bookface-static.ycombinator.com/assets/ycdc/yc-og-image-c440a0ad1dacfb86eeeb343717479cc54d256614449b4ef719977a0a451f8bc8.png","company":{"id":30353,"name":"Axal","slug":"axal","url":"https://www.axal.ai/","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/82e9354c307a1bd5e3bca2ede62b3b0bdfbdba15.png","batch":"Winter 2025","industry":"Industrials","tags":["Hardware","Robotics","Manufacturing","Electronics"],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/30353"}}
