Contract Manufacturing

Prototyping:

Our team is capable of handling a project from a basic design brief and can produce a comprehensive product specification for approval. With due consideration to best practices for manufacture and test, the electronics are then designed to the product specification, the PCB laid out and production documentation produced. Production prototypes are then manufactured and any necessary code created. The design is then tested as far as possible at Locator before submission for evaluation and subsequent joint design review.
