The Success of Companies with Technology-Enabled Manufacturing & Design

Consumer design companies provide high-quality services in Electronic product design, firmware development, prototyping & manufacturing according to custom specifications. They offer complete turnkey solutions right from concept design & prototyping all the way up to complete management of small & large volume production including embedded processors, microcontrollers or FPGA. Technology-enabled manufacturing processes can accelerate design cycles, lower development costs, and help support more SKUs and product customization that consumers now demand. From airplanes to automobiles to hospitals, electronics can be found nearly everywhere delivering value through advanced features and improving user experiences. Trust in digital deposition technologies, surface mount technology (SMT) and micro-fabrication to overhaul new product development (NPD) and introduction (NPI) processes to your target market.

 

Electronic Hardware/Firmware

Hardware engineers are industry veterans in product design, with a portfolio spanning from consumer products and wearable devices to telecommunication and aerospace. Whether it is a compact wearable or a large industrial automation board, every project receives the same standard of care and skillful workmanship. Hardware capabilities include system design, schematic design, PCB layout, production, testing, documentation, and certification support. Clients demands firmware expertise that provides low- and high-level descriptive languages for bare-metal, RTOS and embedded environments such as Linux or FreeRTOS, with extensive sensor and other peripheral system development.

Customized PCB Designs

Advanced printed circuit boards (PCBs) are commonly used in high-precision electronic devices. With the continuous development of the technology, the demand is also getting higher and higher. PCB designs are the most vital part of the complete circuit board; thus most of the clients want to have the best electronic fabrication approaches as their core service. This include sizing/layout, component placement, thermal management and other embedded components. We utilize advanced fabrication techniques such as 3D ink-jet printing and 3D printing to provide PCB designs of 3D dimensional via careful placement from the simplest single sided PCB to HDI and sequential laminated multi-layers with multiple blind and buried vias. 3D printing can allow for boards and circuitry with complex shapes that can, for example, fit more easily in specific casings or integrated into larger systems. A complete PCB asssembly (PCBA) solution requires the best SMT processes, whether manual and automatic or single and double sided placement of all component types

Embedded System Engineering

The latest generation of embedded systems is characterized by a high device density and an extremely small footprint. To simplify both the PCB design and assembly phases, more and more designers are adopting embedded component technology. Through this technique, inductors, resistors and capacitors are directly embedded into the PCB. This reduces the length of the traces, the number of soldering points and costs, improving the electrical performance of the circuit and its reliability. Resistors, capacitors and inductors are placed on the inner layers, by printing or etching, during the PCB manufacturing process. Subsequently, they are incorporated into the PCB during the lamination process of the multilayer printed circuit. Inductors also include models equipped with a magnetic core. Ferromagnetic cores are embedded in a PCB substrate, while inductive windings are made via photolithography and other standard PCB fabrication processes. Rather than being built one at a time, the components are laid out on a PCB panel and fabricated using an automated process.
