Functional Prototypes
Designing and fabricating a fully functional, production look-a-like prototype is what we strive to deliver at the end of your product’s development phase. Fabricated using materials analogous to production units, our prototyping expertise gives you the confidence to proceed into the manufacturing phase without the worry of retooling or redesigns.
PCB(A) Design
If your design requires custom electrical components, then look no further. Our team has extensive experience designing complex PCB assemblies from the ground up.
Our process for developing PCBA’s begins by outlining requirements, constraints, and goals. We then use these to select appropriate components, generate an electrical schematic, and begin laying out the physical board. The design is then sent to a PCB manufacturer. Once we receive the bare boards, we populate them in-house and begin testing.
