Turnkey Electronic Contract Manufacturing for Military Communication Devices

A turnkey facility is always a good choice for an ECM partnership. Turnkey facilities who can complete your entire project in-house will have the experts, the experience, and the machinery needed to complete any project successfully. When it comes to military based electronic projects, such as a military communications electronics board, a turnkey ECM becomes even more important, as having the entire project completed in-house ensures that the certifications, suppliers, and standards are all met.

The Importance of PFMEA in Electronic Contract Manufacturing

In any manufacturing process, there are bound to be issues. From design to prototype to manufacturing, problems can arise, and the failure to address them early can cost you in both time and money. To best mitigate issues like this, implement the Process Failure Mode Effects Analysis (PFMEA) to help streamline your approach.

The Impact of Counterfeit Parts in the Aerospace and Defense Industry

Government supply chains are constantly under siege by counterfeit parts. Over the last decade, even through vigilant efforts, there has been a marked increase in the number of counterfeit parts found in everything from aerospace to defense electronics. It's not that nothing was being done about the problem. Instead, counterfeit parts became harder to detect, as well as becoming more sophisticated. The danger they posed to government contractors and end-users became no less intense.

Prevent Counterfeit Parts in Your Aerospace Supply Chain

When you think about counterfeits, naturally your mind turns to fake $100 bills or pirated DVDs. Counterfeit goods can be produced to replicate anything of value, however, and show up wherever there is money to be made in their trafficking. Counterfeit goods are always an imitation of the original, in all things but quality. When counterfeit parts make it into the supply chain, they lead to significant degradation of quality overall.

Benefits of Prototyping Your Government Cable Assembly

When dealing with government cable assembly manufacturing, there's no room for surprises. That's why our experienced design and engineering team at Levison Enterprises puts your assembly design through rigorous testing and prototyping. One of Levison's advantages as a one-stop-shop for all your custom cable assemblies is that we see the process through from beginning to end. There's no third party assembly or design team.

What to Look for in a Government Cable Assembly Manufacturing Partner

When you've got a government cable assembly project on the horizon, the pressure is on. Obviously, a job of that magnitude is not going to be handled by some cable off the rack at your local DIY home improvement store. Finding the right partner to help you design, prototype, and manufacture the cable assembly has to know what they are doing, with the proper certifications to back up their claims. It can be a tricky process, but it's easy to alleviate that stress when you know what to look for in a government cable assembly manufacturer.

The Importance of Quality Control for Your Government Cable Assembly

Cable and wire assemblies are the backbone of any electronic application. If you are outsourcing cable and wire harness assemblies for government applications, there can be no substitute for quality and reliability. Simply put, your electronic components have to be rock-solid and ready to go when needed. For that reason alone, it's important to find a manufacturer that understands supply-chain management, and why it's important. Your cable assembly and electrical component demand nothing less.

How to Find a Reliable ECM for Your Aerospace PCB

For those who didn't see it live on television, the moon landing feels like a long time ago. However, it's recent history as far as the technology surrounding electricity and the bending of it to our will is concerned. Since the 1950s, the aerospace industry has made leaps and bounds forward, and all those leaps have been powered by advances in printed circuit board technology.

What to Look for in a Government PCB Manufacturing Partner

A lot of time, energy, and resources go into the design and development of an electronic product for government, military, and aerospace applications. Say you've reached a critical phase in development and you need an ECM you can trust. You don't want to leave anything to chance. But who can you trust for your all-important PCB manufacturing? You want an electronic contract manufacturer (ECM) that will not only meet your expectations but exceed them. Here are some things to look for when choosing a PCB manufacturing partner for your government project.

How to Combat Counterfeit Parts in Your Government PCB Assembly

The world of counterfeit electronic parts is a multibillion-dollar industry that doesn't appear to be slowing down anytime soon. It is a problem the Department of Defense has been battling for years. Counterfeit components put military personnel and missions at risk. In an effort to mitigate this risk, the DOD has strict regulations in place for government and military electronic suppliers. This means you must be vigilant when it comes to the assembly of your printed circuit boards. Luckily, with extra time and effort, and choosing the right contract manufacturer, you can combat counterfeit parts in your government PCB assembly.

Is Your ECM Capable of Military Grade Cable Assembly?

Cables aren't usually the first thing that comes to mind when you think of military electronics. However, defense devices are useless without a way to power them. Enter the cable assembly. They can be used or anything from military ground equipment and field communication links to remote weapons control links and marine and airborne systems.
