What we help with — Box Build Assembly

Box Build Assembly sourcing for Columbus programs

Full electromechanical assembly, integration, testing, and packaging — from sub-assemblies to finished product.

Our box-build bench takes PCBAs, harnesses, mechanical enclosures, and purchased components and turns them into finished, tested, packaged product. Scope includes electromechanical sub-assembly, full system integration, cable routing and dress, software/firmware loading, functional test development and execution, environmental burn-in, label and serial-number application, custom packaging, and direct fulfillment. We support both kitted (you supply components) and turnkey (we source) models. Volumes range from single-unit engineering builds and 10-unit pilot runs through sustained production of thousands of units monthly. Workmanship to IPC-A-610 and IPC/WHMA-A-620 Class 2 or Class 3. Full traceability — by serial number, by lot, by component date code — is standard on the shops we shortlist for regulated industries. We match each program to a shop with the right mix of electrical, mechanical, and test capability, sized for your volume so you're not paying enterprise overhead on a 50-unit run.

Why SmartFab

Why Columbus teams source box build through SmartFab

One RFQ, one accountable partner

One box build RFQ from Columbus returns one accountable manufacturing quote — sized for your volume, your certifications, and your lead time.

Supply chain headache, eliminated

We own sourcing, production, and follow-up on every Columbus box build program so your team ships product instead of chasing shops.

Better supplier fit

Box build is where electrical, mechanical, and test capability all have to live under one roof — and the right shop depends on which of those dominates. For Columbus programs in semiconductor, that means placing the build on a line with the right certifications and volume profile from day one.

Build approach

Build approach for Columbus box build programs

When we route a box build RFQ for a Columbus customer, we evaluate the build against facilities in our network on three axes: certifications (does it need ISO 9001 with ISO 13485 or AS9100 add-ons?), volume (prototype, low-volume, production), and lead time. Columbus's Intel fab buildout and automotive R&D need cleanroom-adjacent assembly, IATF 16949, and ITAR partners — our Midwest bench is structured for the mix.

For semiconductor programs in Columbus, we typically return one accountable manufacturing quote within 24–48 hours.
