Techsol Services: Production

Techsol is a world leader in Linux on ARM technology.
Leverage our off-the-shelf Medallion Computer Modules and development kits to accelerate your development projects. Whether you just need a Computer-on-Module for your own semi-custom design, or you need a turn-key solution, Techsol's focused Hardware and Software expertise plus superb support get you to market faster.
And our highly-integrated solutions provide the greatest value to maintain your competitive cost-advantage into production.

Techsol offers a variety of production options, which can be tailored to meet your needs.
If we are doing your manufacturing then we also provide production support (like locating/sourcing alternate parts when a component becomes obsolete or there is a shortage) for free!

In-house Production Services

Techsol has a state-of-the-art, precision, low-volume SMT production line.
Featuring camera-vision plus laser-alignment technologies, it can place fine-pitch BGAs as well as tiny passive devices.
This line is intended to speed prototype development for custom designs, as well as supporting pilot-runs or other low-volume production.

Local Production Services

Techsol has established relationships with nearby Contract Manufacturers (CMs) with high-volume SMT production lines.
These help ensure rapid response time and consistent quality.
Its amazing how quickly any issues can be resolved when the supplier is less than 10 minutes away!
This option is intended for mid- to high-volume runs for items with low labour content.

NAFTA Production Services

Techsol also has established relationships with other Contract Manufacturers (CMs) with higher-volume SMT production lines.
Ever since the NAFTA agreement, products can be moved across borders between Canada, the USA, and Mexico with no duties.
The Mexican shops offer lower labour costs without language or time-zone challenges.
This option is intended for mid-volume runs for items with higher labour content.

Overseas Production Services

Techsol also has established relationships off-shore production houses.
The time-zone, language, legal, and shipping costs add to the cost of production.
This option is intended for high-volume products with higher labour content.
But since we design for low-labour production, we rarely excercise this option.
However, for portable computers (such as a lap-top) where the labour content is quite high, this makes sense.
