Our Materials Requirement Planning (MRP) solution keeps us flexible and efficient, passing savings on to you. Our commitment to Quality ensures the highest reliability from your product.
Juggling the requirements of your customers with multiple sub-systems? Maintaining supplier management and control domestically and globally isn’t easy. Our systems work with your suppliers and our suppliers and partners to pledge quality work to you and your customers. Kanban relationships, large capital requirements, quality product and test are all present at Spinnaker. We have the tools to manage final process in a lean environment with great flexibility.
We build quality electronic assemblies, from prototypes to full production runs. We can work with your team at all phases of a project, from development to build, including design for manufacturing. We use an outstanding data-driven infrastructure to support the process from quote, to plan, build, test, and final delivery. We help mature products earlier by choosing the correct raw material suppliers for your needs; we manage and monitor them statistically to ensure that you end up with superior supplies.
PCB Assembly
Spinnaker’s Surface Mount Technology (SMT) division is capable of placing over one million parts per week with two independent production lines and four placement machines. We are capable of quick quote turns in as short as one day with consigned material, and can deliver a turnkey product in three to five days. Dual sided, ridged and flexible PCB assemblies are specialties of ours. For a complete equipment list and detailed descriptions of our services and capabilities, see PCB Assembly.
Cables and Harnesses
Cable and wire harness assembly is where Spinnaker Contract Manufacturing got its start in 1976. We specialize in the manufacture of discrete, low- to medium-volume cable assemblies, wire harnesses, and multi-conductor cable assemblies. We have the tooling and applicators to build cables and harnesses at extremely competitive prices.
Constantly investing in new tooling, we build sub-level cable systems competitively and locally to our customer’s exact specifications and test requirements. Similar to PCBA and final assembly, our quality and process engineering allows for the highest quality product possible. Hi-pot, continuity, point-2-point, and functional testing are just some of the tests we do to ensure a zero defect product every time. Read more…
