Your partner for electronic products

Every successful product starts from a different point. Perhaps you’ve just had an idea, are already working on a prototype, or would like to further develop an existing product. Wherever you are in the process, we’ll meet you where you are and support you with the right expertise. Regardless of your company’s size or sector, if your product contains electronics or is to be integrated with them, you’ve come to the right place.

How far have you got with the development of your electronic product?

How we can support you in practical terms depends on the stage you’re currently at. Here’s an overview of the different stages of development. Find out where you stand and how we can move forward together.

Do you have an idea?

A good idea is the starting point. We turn it into a viable, marketable product. We pick you up right where you are at the moment. An initial idea is transformed into a product:

Analysis and technical consultancy
Feasibility study and product concept
Hardware and software development
Industrialisation and series production approval
Series production, scaling and services

Your benefit: We are your partner throughout the entire product life cycle. From the initial idea right through to series production.

Do you have any drawings to illustrate your idea?

Perfect, let’s get straight into it then. We’ll review your existing drawings, diagrams or layouts, add to them where necessary and develop them further in a targeted manner:

Technical assessment and optimisation
Design review (feasibility, costs, manufacturability)
Filling in missing development components
Industrialisation and scaling

The benefit for you: Your existing documentation is efficiently transformed into a product ready for series production. Without any detours.

Is there a feasibility study?

Very good, that’s what we’re counting on. We will review, validate and expand upon your existing feasibility study and take the project forward in a targeted manner:

Technical and economic assessment
Identification of risks and potential for optimisation
Development of a robust product and implementation plan
Transition to development, industrialisation and series production

Your benefit: With us, a thorough analysis forms a solid basis for decision-making, leading to a product ready for series production.

Do you have a good prototype?

Great, then let’s get it ready for mass production. We’ll analyse your existing prototype, carry out targeted optimisation and ensure it’s successfully brought into mass production:

Technical assessment and functional testing
Optimisation for cost, quality and reliability
Design for manufacturing and testing
Industrialisation and series production approval
Mass production, scaling and lifecycle services

Your benefit: A prototype is transformed into a stable, economically viable production product.

Do you have a prototype that you’re not happy with?

No problem, we’ll carry out targeted optimisation. We’ll analyse your prototype, identify any weaknesses and improve it both technically and economically:

Functional, quality and reliability analysis
Optimisation of design, components and software
Cost, manufacturing and test optimisation
Preparation for industrialisation and series production

Your benefit: A working prototype becomes a compelling product ready for mass production.

Do you already have some samples?

OK, let’s move on to the next step. We’ll carry out a targeted assessment of your samples and prepare them for series production:

Technical testing and validation
Optimisation for production, testing and costs
Adjustments for quality and reproducibility
Industrialisation and series production approval

Your benefit: Your samples are transformed into a stable, efficiently producible mass-production solution.

Do you have a product concept?

Very well, then let’s set about implementing it in a targeted manner. We’ll review your product concept, refine it from both a technical and commercial perspective, and take it forward reliably:

Review of requirements, architecture and target costs
Technical validation and optimisation
Planning of development, industrialisation and series production
Implementation through to series production and scaling

Your benefit: We efficiently transform a well-thought-out concept into a production-ready product.

Do you have a finished product that’s ready for the market?

Allright, then we’ll take care of production and scaling. We’ll support you beyond the product itself:

Mass production and ramp-up
Cost, quality and supply chain optimisation
Scaling of production volumes
Services, end-of-life and lifecycle management
Optional: full outsourcing

Your benefit: You can focus on the market and your customers, whilst we ensure stable, efficient and scalable implementation.

Do you want to make your existing product IoT-enabled?

Certainly, in that case we’ll enhance it specifically with connectivity and intelligence. We’ll seamlessly integrate IoT features into your existing product:

Analysis of existing hardware and software
Selection and integration of connectivity (e.g. sensors, communication)
Embedded, cloud and backend integration
Security, update and lifecycle concepts

The benefit for you: Your existing product will be digitally connected, future-proof and ready for new business models.

Would you simply like a no-obligation consultation?

We’d be delighted to. We take the time to understand your idea, challenge or question and show you possible ways forward:

Assessment of your current situation
Initial technical and economic assessment
Outlining potential solutions and next steps
No obligation, open and practical

The benefit for you: You gain clarity, guidance and a sound basis for decision-making. With no obligation whatsoever.

Models of collaboration

Original Equipment Manufacturing (OEM)

In the field of Original Equipment Manufacturing (OEM), we support the entire process from the initial product concept through to series production. We work with the customer to develop, industrialise and prepare products for production.

The scope of services can include development, procurement, quality management, product management and support throughout the entire product lifecycle. A particular focus is on the integration of sensor and communication technologies for connected products and IoT applications.

We provide support with development, industrialisation and product lifecycle management right through to series production.

Contract Manufacturing (CM)

In Contract Manufacturing (CM), we undertake the manufacture of products in accordance with the customer’s requirements and specifications. Product development and design remain the responsibility of the customer, whilst we ensure manufacturing, testing and the agreed traceability.

Depending on the project, our collaboration may cover individual manufacturing steps or the entire production process. If manufacturing requirements are taken into account as early as the development phase, manufacturability, quality and production costs can be optimised at an early stage.

The customer develops the product, we manufacture it to defined specifications.

“You bring the idea, the challenge or an existing product, we provide the appropriate development and manufacturing expertise to turn it into a successful electronic solution. Whilst others focus only on individual project phases, we support our customers throughout the entire value chain and offer the right services from a single source. In this way, we reduce complexity and lay the foundations for sustainable and cost-effective product success.”
