Complete manufacturing outsourcing, no intermediaries.
A single partner for assembly, integration and testing: more efficiency, fewer errors.
Quick response: clear guidance and next steps.
By assembly of a finished electronic device (often called box build assembly) we mean the set of activities required to deliver a complete system: components correctly connected, integrated into the case/enclosure, tested and ready for shipment.
Assembling complete electronic devices involves a sequence of activities. Each step is always meticulously planned to facilitate automation and minimise errors.
Mounting and integration of electronic boards and sub-assemblies into the finished product.
Realisation of cables and wiring harnesses for power and signal transmission.
Positioning and integration of mechanical components within the predefined enclosure.
Loading of firmware and software to specification.
Set-up and configuration of the system according to project specifications.
Execution of agreed functional tests for product validation.
Packaging and delivery of the finished product to destination.
Examples of electronic equipment we assemble:
small control devices
human-machine interfaces with display
encapsulated probes
industrial racks and server racks
In general, we assemble electronics encapsulated in an external enclosure, with the level of integration required by your product.
Quick response + NDA available before file sharing.
Box build assembly, often considered the culmination of the manufacturing process, refers to the comprehensive construction of electronic systems and enclosures. Within this scope, we at CTA offer bespoke manufacturing, assembling and testing services. Our expertise ranges from the initial integration of subsystems to the final product assembly, ensuring that every aspect of the box build is meticulously executed according to Client specifications.
Our process is holistic and tailored to fit our Customers specific needs.
By handling the complexity of box build assembly, from parts procurement to the integration of PCBs, the configuration of software, the installation of cable harnesses and all the way up to post-manufacturing testing, we offer Clients not only an industrial service, but also the peace of mind that comes with knowing their products are in the safest of hands.
Leveraging this expertise, we strive to provide a seamless box build experience and whether it's for small devices or large-scale industrial equipment, our approach ensures that every project is grounded in quality workmanship and technical rigour.
Here are the main steps in the assembly process of a complete electronic device
We start from BOM/Gerber or specifications: we define critical points, mechanical constraints, configurations, tests and acceptance criteria.
Assembly sequences, cabling, instructions, tools and controls to reduce errors and rework.
Installation in the enclosure, cabling, fastenings, components, interfaces and accessories.
Loading and set-up to specification, variant management when applicable.
Execution of agreed tests, lot/serial traceability (if required), packaging and delivery.
When you outsource finished product assembly, the goal is one: repeatability. That is why we work with verifiable controls and steps (especially on cabling, interfaces and configurations), so that lots remain consistent over time.
Frequently asked questions about this service.
In a complete box build assembly, the components typically encompass the metal or plastic enclosure, the internal electronics including printed circuit boards (PCBs), cable assemblies, wire harnesses, and any necessary interface devices. We ensure all components meet strict quality standards and are suitable for the end application.
Box build assembly services are most commonly utilised in industries including medical devices, telecommunications, aerospace, defence, industrial controls, and consumer electronics. These services are crucial for industries that require reliable, high-quality electronic products packaged and ready for market or deployment.
PCB assembly is a critical phase within the overall box build process, as it involves mounting and soldering electronic components onto the PCB. Following its assembly, the PCB is integrated into the enclosure along with other components, forming the final product ready for use. We handle PCB assembly with precision to ensure it seamlessly integrates with other elements of the box build.
Box build assembly encompasses a broader scope of work than electronic component assembly. It includes installation of components within enclosures, implementation of various sub-assemblies, installation of cable harnesses, and often involves a higher level of customisation and complexity. Our approach to box build assembly is thorough, tailoring to the specific needs of the product and ensuring a fully functional end result, as opposed to working with individual components in isolation.
