Manufacturing capabilities
Production capabilities, stated plainly.
The datasheet view of what we run — and what we don't. Anything not listed is answered honestly in the RFQ, including "no." Program-specific numbers are quoted against your actual BOM rather than published as generic ranges.
01 · Assembly & integration
Kitting, integration, and final assembly
Box-build assembly
- Electro-mechanical integration of PCBA, display, power and harness into the enclosure
- Sub-assembly prep and per-unit kitting
- Controlled-torque fastening to the spec for each joint
- ESD-safe handling throughout
- Firmware loading from your image — the IP stays yours
- Serialization, labeling and final QC
Where the work happens
- Kitting, final assembly and functional test: in-house, on our own floor
- Fabrication (metal, PCBA, displays, harnesses): named partner facilities
- First article built and signed off before volume
Supply models
- Full turnkey — we source the BOM
- Consigned — you supply the parts
- Split BOM — itemized line-by-line in the quote

02 · Enclosures & mechanical
Metalwork, finishes, and sealing
Enclosure types
- Precision sheet metal
- Die-cast
- Injection-molded
- Extruded and modified off-the-shelf
Finishes
- Anodizing
- Powder coating
- PMS-matched decoration via overlay or paint spec
Sealing
- Gasketed assemblies quoted to IP65 / IP67 / IP68
- Gasket design verified at first article
- Ingress validation where the build carries a rating
CAP-02 / MECHANICAL
03 · Display & interface
Displays, touch, and HMI components
Display integration
- Industrial TFT/LCD sourced to your spec
- PCAP touch integration
- High-brightness options for sunlight-lit environments
- Air-gap mounting with AG / AR / AF cover-lens treatments
- No optical (OCA/LOCA) bonding — stated plainly; we say so when a program needs a bonded stack
Interface components
- Membrane switches — tactile and non-tactile, backlit
- Graphic overlays — polycarbonate and hard-coated PET
- Silicone rubber keypads — molded, coated, laser-etched legends
- Supplied standalone or integrated into the build
CAP-03 / DISPLAY
04 · Cable & harness
Harnesses and cable assemblies
Assembly types
- Multi-branch wire harnesses to your wire list
- Coaxial / RF assemblies to specified connector series
- Ribbon and FFC/FPC jumpers
- Power and battery cabling
- LVDS / eDP display and interface cabling
Workmanship & test
- IPC/WHMA-A-620 workmanship standard
- Specified connector part numbers held, not substituted
- Crimp pull-testing to sample
- Continuity 100%; hipot where specified
CAP-04 / CABLING
05 · Quality & test
Quality system and test
Facility standards
- Fabrication runs at partner facilities operating under ISO 9001:2015 QMS
- Facility certificates provided during vendor qualification — the real certificate for the assigned line
- Electronic assembly to IPC-A-610 Class 2 acceptability
- UL 969-recognized label constructions where required
Essen's inspection layer
- Written Go/No-Go functional checklist agreed per project before production
- IQC on sourced components against the locked BOM
- OQC on AQL sampling; report ships with the goods
- BOM locked at a named revision — no change without written notice
Test
- AOI at board level on partner SMT lines
- Functional test of every unit with your firmware, on our floor
- Your test fixture or one built to your acceptance criteria
- Serial traceability back to kit and supplier lots
CAP-05 / QUALITY
06 · Files & commercial
File formats, terms, and scope
File formats accepted
- Gerber, ODB++, IPC-2581
- Centroid / pick-and-place data
- BOM as CSV or XLSX
- STEP, DXF/DWG, dimensioned PDF drawings
Commercial terms
- USD invoicing
- Net 30 on approved credit
- DDP available — one landed number
- Tooling owned by you, in writing
Out of scope — stated plainly
- No ITAR / defense-article work
- No firmware development — we load yours
- No blank-sheet circuit design — we build to your spec
- No optical bonding
