Hardware Design & Fabrication

We take hardware from a requirement to a manufacturable product: circuit design and multi-layer PCB layout, mechanical design and enclosures, prototype and small-series build, and the test and certification evidence needed to sell it. The same team that writes the firmware designs the board it runs on, which is where most integration problems are avoided.

Circuit & PCB Design

Schematic capture through multi-layer layout, designed for manufacture.

Schematic design and multi-layer PCB layout for mixed-signal, power and high-speed digital, with controlled impedance and careful stack-up where the signalling demands it.

Layouts are reviewed for DFM and DFT from the outset — test points, panelisation and assembly tolerances decided before fabrication rather than discovered at it.

Signal Integrity & EMC

Getting through the EMC chamber the first time.

EMI/EMC-aware design — grounding strategy, return paths, filtering and shielding decided during layout, which is the only point at which they are cheap.

We prepare for pre-compliance and formal testing, and work through the failures that do occur rather than handing over a report.

3D Design & Enclosures

Mechanical design that survives the environment it ships into.

3D CAD modelling of enclosures and mechanical assemblies, with thermal behaviour, ingress protection and serviceability considered alongside appearance.

Designs are produced for the process that will actually make them — 3D printing, CNC, sheet metal or injection moulding each impose different rules.

Prototyping & Small-Series Build

Working hardware in your hands, not a rendering.

Rapid prototyping with 3D-printed and machined parts, hand-built and SMT-assembled boards, and bring-up of the first articles.

Small-series production runs for pilots, field trials and certification samples, with the build documentation to repeat them.

Fabrication & Supply

Managing the vendors so the board arrives as designed.

PCB fabrication and assembly managed through vetted suppliers: package selection, BOM sourcing with second sources, and incoming inspection against the drawing.

We handle the vendor conversation — stack-up confirmations, assembly queries and rework decisions — so hardware does not stall on a procurement question.

Compliance & Certification Support

The evidence trail that lets you sell it in Europe.

Preparation of the technical file for CE marking, with compliance evidence for EMC, RoHS and REACH, and coordination with notified bodies and test houses.

Where a product is also destined for other markets we prepare the equivalent FCC and ISO documentation from the same design record.
