Design Support

Custom Interface takes your conceptual designs (even a napkin sketch), schematics, or BOMs, and can convert them into CAD drawings.

Consulting

Using our experience with creating rugged assemblies for military & aerospace, where durability and weather resistance in high-vibration and exposed environments is mission critical, we suggest materials and manufacturing processes to protect your products and ensure their success in the field.


Manufacturing & Quality

From harnesses to box builds, our experienced technicians will manufacture your products with the same level of quality as assemblies used for manned aircraft, where lives are dependent and field failure is not an option.

Testing

In addition to high-voltage/continuity/shorts testing, we perform functional testing of components, such as switches and LEDs whether they are integrated into an assembly or stand-alone, to weed out component level defects.

As standard, we perform destructive pull tests of each wire/crimp combination to ensure that the force meets either the manufacturer’s or IPC-620’s specified force rating. This ensures our tooling is set correctly, and that field failures of this nature do not occur.


Flexibility

We understand that designs change, so we adapt quickly to new variables and continue to consult and support throughout the re-design process.

Consolidation

We can identify areas to consolidate designs with our unique set of resources when provided information regarding the installation of the assemblies.

If multiple harnesses are integrated into an electronics tray or box, it may make sense for us to build the entire tray for a plug-and-play option during final assembly. This method can significantly reduce the burden on your supply chain and production.


Supply chain

Our relationships with vendors and our ability to lot track, organize, and store thousands of part numbers, allows us to keep product flowing to you, monitor potential delays and navigate them, and ensure you meet your commitment dates.

Plus, hundreds of other suppliers in our network
