Box Build Integration
We have developed specialized advanced assembly solutions using advanced materials, equipment and processes. These novel assembly solutions are analyzed and validated, resulting in high yields and allowing us to reliably produce these systems to scale, no matter their size. Using our expertise in ball grid array and chip-scale packages, we can miniaturize Printed Circuit Board Assembly (PCBA) to module level, increasing processing power while improving chip reliability and heat management.
Box Build Assembly Process
In the box build assembly process, maintaining high-quality standards and thorough documentation is essential. Accurate records, such as component traceability, assembly procedures, and test outcomes, are kept to uphold product quality and support any future troubleshooting or maintenance needs. Below is an explanation of the steps involved in the box build assembly process:
Preparing the Enclosure
Initially, the enclosure or housing is prepared. This step involves checking for any imperfections or damage, conducting a thorough clean, and confirming the correct positioning of mounting holes and slots.
Integrating Components
Following the enclosure preparation, components are installed. This phase encompasses mounting and securing the PCBs, power supply units (PSUs), connectors, control panels, and any other necessary elements. Ensuring correct placement, fastening, and electrical grounding of these components is vital at this stage.
Electrical Wiring and Connection
After the components are in place, electrical wiring and connecting are undertaken. This includes routing and linking wires, cables, and harnesses to form electrical connections among the components. Special care is taken to manage routing, length, insulation, and fastening of the wires to guarantee reliable and orderly connections.
Integrating Subsystems
In cases where the assembly includes pre-assembled subsystems or modules, they are integrated at this juncture. This involves fitting components like communication modules, motor control modules, or other units tailored for specific functions.
Control and Testing
Upon completing the integration, the assembled product is subject to exhaustive testing and quality assurance checks. Functional, electrical, and performance evaluations are conducted to confirm its operation, conformity to design parameters, and regulatory compliance. Detected issues or anomalies are corrected at this point.
Final Inspection
Following successful testing, additional elements like cooling fans, heat sinks, or covers are installed. A final check is then carried out to ensure the quality of the assembly, correct connections, alignment, and compliance with design criteria.
Packaging and Labeling
The concluding phase is packaging the fully assembled product or system, ensuring it is well-protected for transport and storage. The packaging process includes applying labels, branding, and user instructions to the packaging's exterior.

Time Savings and Cost Reduction
By Box Build Assembly, you can achieve a faster production turnaround. Working with a single electromechanical service provider who possesses comprehensive knowledge of each component within the box build eliminates the need to coordinate with multiple vendors.
Quality & Supply Chain Simplification
Entrusting your box build assembly to specialists ensures the highest quality standards are maintained. These experts understand the intricate interplay between individual components, such as circuit boards and wire harnesses, guaranteeing optimal compatibility and performance. Furthermore, consolidating your assembly needs with one vendor simplifies your supply chain, leading to improved logistics management and reduced complexity.
Product Specifications
Communicate the exact dimensions and desired aesthetic of your final product to your chosen electronics manufacturing service (EMS) provider. Supplying detailed design drawings with clearly marked tolerances and clearances is essential. Additionally, inform the EMS provider of the finished unit's size and weight beforehand to facilitate efficient production, storage, and shipping processes.
Bill of Materials (BOM)
A comprehensive BOM listing all necessary components and materials is crucial. Specificity is key; clearly indicate the source of each material, distinguishing between those you will provide and those the EMS provider will procure.
Prototype Development
Opting for an EMS provider with in-house prototyping capabilities allows for invaluable insights into design functionality and potential areas for refinement. Engaging in prototyping before full-scale production helps identify necessary adjustments and prevents issues during the assembly phase.
Testing Protocols
Clearly outline the specific testing procedures required throughout the assembly process and for the final product. While visual inspections often suffice, certain functional thresholds might necessitate additional testing. Maintain open communication with your EMS provider to ensure they are fully aware of all electrical and functional testing requirements.
