When designing custom cable assemblies, the flexibility to prototype without being constrained by minimum order quantities (MOQ) can be a game changer. At Xact EMS, we understand the unique demands that electromechanical engineers, electrical engineers, and cable and harness designers face. That’s why we offer custom cable prototypes with no MOQ requirements, allowing you to iterate quickly and refine your designs without unnecessary production limits.
Our state-of-the-art facilities in Houston and Calgary provide end-to-end services, from prototyping and first article production to comprehensive in-house testing, ensuring speed, reliability, and quality.
Why Xact EMS for Custom Cable Prototypes?
Top Applications Requiring Custom Ruggedized Cable Assemblies and Harnesses
1. No MOQ Constraints: We believe that your design process shouldn’t be hindered by high minimum order quantities. Whether you need one prototype or a few, Xact EMS offers the flexibility to produce exactly what you need. This can be especially valuable during the early stages of development, where frequent adjustments may be required.
2. Fast Turnaround Times: With our entire prototyping process housed under one roof, both in Houston and Calgary, we can move from design to prototype production quickly. We eliminate delays caused by outsourcing or dealing with multiple vendors. Our in-house capabilities reduce lead times, allowing you to meet tight project deadlines.
3. First Article Production and Approval: Once the prototype is ready, we ensure that the first article is thoroughly inspected and meets the exact specifications you’ve outlined. This early verification step is crucial in ensuring your design performs as intended before moving forward with larger-scale production.
4. In-House Quality Testing: At Xact EMS, we’re equipped to conduct full in-house testing, covering electrical, mechanical, and environmental parameters. This ensures that every cable or harness we produce, whether it’s a prototype or a production unit, meets stringent quality standards. Our testing ensures reliability, performance, and safety, helping you avoid costly mistakes down the line.
5. End-to-End Control for Enhanced Reliability: By keeping the entire process in-house, from design to testing, Xact EMS maintains full control over the quality and integrity of each custom cable assembly. This not only ensures greater consistency but also allows us to be agile and responsive to any adjustments you need, providing a seamless experience from start to finish.
6. Expertise in Complex and Ruggedized Applications: Our 25+ years of experience in producing custom wiring harnesses and cable assemblies for demanding environments such as the oilfield and aerospace sectors make us a trusted partner for complex and ruggedized designs. We bring that same level of expertise and attention to detail to every prototype we build.
