04, The Work

Five things the drawing does not have to say

The Greene, New York floor runs mixed technology every day, coats what needs coating, and ships with the paperwork that lets your incoming inspection close the file. What follows is what customers stop asking about after the first build.

  1. Toyota approved supplier, assemblies inspected to IPC standards under the Toyota Quality System.
  2. Domestic build in Greene, New York with full lot, reel and operator traceability.
  3. Two to four week lead times typical for turn key PCBA.
  4. Same time zone as your engineering team, direct line to engineering.
  5. Custom test fixtures designed and built for functional test.
