Contract Electronics Manufacturing

Contract Electronics Manufacturing

At CT Production we are passionate about both manufacturing and the service we provide. Quality, price and delivery are carefully balanced within a controlled environment in order to achieve a competitive edge.

We have invested in a wide range of facilities and cutting edge equipment meaning we can support the manufacture of products from simple to the most complex technology. From PCB to boxed unit, rapid prototype to medium volume, we are able to assist you.

Our staff is our major asset, and their skills and enthusiasm are reflected within the organisation from top to bottom.

SMT, PCB, BGA Assembly

CT Production continually invests in some of the finest equipment available for Surface Mount PCB assembly, offering speed with both accuracy and flexibility. Our Europlacer placement machines use rapid-change intelligent feeders and can handle components from 01005 resistors to ball grid array (BGA) fine pitch devices up to 70mm square.

All common PCB substrate materials are populated, including FR4, flexi, flexi-rigid, aluminium and PTFE.

Solder paste printing is a critical process, which our sprint automatic stencil printers can achieve accurately and consistently, with built-in automatic optical inspection for verification. 

Solder paste reflow is carefully profiled and processed using BTU VIP98 7+7 zone convection ovens. 

Our SMT PCB processes are fully supported by experienced IPC trained technicians, using the finest and latest technology equipment for process set-up and verification. 

General Assembly & Wiring

General Assembly & Wiring

A range of services are available for electromechanical assembly and wiring of your product. They can be tested and packed for distribution to your end customer.

Whether your product is a small batch complex instrument rack, a sub assembly or high volume commercial item, CT Production is able to help.

We currently produce control panels, optical flame monitors with lens systems, telecoms switching units, fuel and gas monitoring units, hospital bed controllers and radiation monitoring units, etc.

Please visit our website for more information.

Box Build

CT Production has the facilities and the expertise for products requiring PCB assembly plus integration into a box or cabinet with wiring and testing.

Each product is different, so assembly lines are customised to optimise the process. We can adapt for changing models and requirements according to your schedule.

Our resources include teams of skilled technicians and multi-skilled operators to cater for variations in complexity and volume, from simple plastic box to complex rack assembly.

Materials including plastic mouldings, metal parts, packaging and printed material can be sourced to offer a competitive total package. Additionally, we can ship to your end-customer if required, as we do for several existing contracts.

Conformal Coating & Encapsulation

Conformal Coating & Encapsulation

Conformal coating and encapsulation offers protection for products that operate in challenging environments or that require a security seal. At CT Production these processes are carried out using fully automatic and semi-automatic equipment delivering cost effective, accurate and consistent results, as well as a safer and cleaner environment.

Conformal Coating:  The PVA 650 automatic conformal coating machine is highly accurate, using fine spray patterns, thus eliminating the need for masking. The preferred material is Humiseal UV40, cured in a microwave UV oven, dry to touch within seconds of application.

Encapsulation: PCBs etc are encapsulated in resin to protect against vibration, shock, liquid or for intrinsic safety. Encapsulation using Robnor equipment provides an automatically self-metered encapsulation process.

Quality Inspection

CT Production continually delivers high quality product to customers, having invested heavily in personnel, equipment and effective quality assurance systems.  Our staff is trained to meet IPC A 610 workmanship standards.

Automatic Optical Inspection (AOI) of PCB assemblies using our Marantz iSpector machine is a highly effective method for achieving non-contact quality assurance. It verifies component presence, orientation and value on dense SMT PCB assemblies With 24 bit colour definition, advanced lighting and complex software algorithms it also reliably checks solder joint quality. This process offers improved cost and quality results when compared with in-circuit test.

Manual Optical Inspection AOI is not a full replacement for human inspection, which can be carried out where appropriate using magnifying scopes etc for workmanship and build conformance.

X ray and Erascope Inspection

X ray and Erascope Inspection

It is essential that state of the art electronic products are matched by state of the art solutions to manufacture and verify their quality. Today's Printed Circuit Boards contain Ball Grid Array and similar devices with joints that are not visible by standard visual inspection.

CT Production offers the finest solutions available, having invested in both X-ray and Ersascope visual inspection technology, with fully supporting rework systems and highly trained technicians.

X-Tek Hawk Xray: With 6000 x magnification at various angles, X-ray inspection confirms whether BGA and QFN devices are fitted and soldered correctly. It is powerful enough to see through any device on a PCB to inspect internals such as part defects or PCB inner layers, shorts, opens and other process defects which cannot be seen using other methods. It offers detailed analysis, including voids and can also be programmed to run repeatable routines.

The ErsaScope inspection scope has an ultra low profile prism lens for optical viewing underneath devices such as BGAs to visually inspect solder joint quality. It can be focussed to view along a row of joints under a device, thus complementing X-ray analysis.
