Prototyping
A five-day prototyping and small series electronics assembly service will be introduced by Eurocircuits (G75).
The service is supported with an online PCBA visualiser tool to provide immediate design for manufacture (DFM) feedback and online pricing for a customer’s PCB, components and assembly service.
There will be live demonstrations of the online DFM tools.
The service is an extension to its prototype and small series PCB manufacturing service, with online verification and pricing tools, component sourcing and professional component assembly.
Printed electronics
Printed electronics, industrial graphics, labels, die-cuts and brand protection products are produced by East Kilbride based CCL Design (M110) using the company‘s in-house design and manufacturing capabilities.
Founded in 1979, the company now supplies a range of industries, including consumer electronics, IT, telecomms, automotive and medical devices.
Products have UL recognition for marking and labelling systems. An in‑house materials science group provides design and prototype support.
It works directly with clients and design centres on the development of high-perfomance coatings, adhesives and laminate materials for a range of end-use applications.
System assembly
Another European electronic manufacturing services (EMS) company, Cicor Romanian, is exhibiting at this year’s show (J90).
The member of the Swiss Group Cicor has been in Romania since 1996, providing PCB assembly, system assembly and box building, control cabinet construction and cable assembly.
