MANUFACTURINGOur company offers more than 50 years of experience in high-tech mechanical and

electronic production for aviation, defense and space products with a strong focus

on RF production. We cover a total product life cycle from development, prototyping,

industrialization, procurement, production, up to maintenance and repair, customer

support and obsolescence management. We support our customers by on-time

deliveries, product quality and value for money. Our production is managed by a

full-fledged SAP ERP system extended by a continuous improvement management

system and lean manufacturing programme.

Mechanical Parts Production

Advionics is equipped with modern

CNC-milling machinery. We have a

fully installed milling centre with an

automated warehouse which provides

24/7 parts production.

The complementary smaller CNC

milling stations guarantee flexibility to

meet the customer’s demands for the

production of mechanical parts.

Our machinery is equipped to mill

multiple materials with focus on

aluminum alloys.

Our competence in mechanical parts

production consists of the complexity

of structures to be milled. High depth

to radius ratio (>10) or small wall

thickness (<1mm) means no challenge

to us. Mechanical parts are produced

by several 4-axis horizontally milling

machines and additional turning lathe.

In order to prove accuracy, all parts are

measured by means of 3D coordinate

measuring device.

However, we don’t stop at milling,

deburring is at least as important for

(airborne) electromechanical parts as

milling itself.

As a standard, all our mechanical parts

get a vibratory finish. The vibrating

interaction of water, compound, media

and our mechanical parts produces the

required surface finish and deburring.

It is followed by a visual inspection and

manually deburring where necessary.

Mechanical parts production

For some very complex or larger

products, milling is not an option and

aluminum casting is required.

However casting hasn’t the precision

of milling. We have a substantial

experience to mill your casted product

to the precision you want.

To give your milled parts the best

protection possible, we can provide

them with a protective chemical

coating, to prevent corrosion.

Parts also can be finished with

protective paintwork. We offer wet

paint spraying and can accomplish

all of your demands.

We perform also the assembly of

different mechanical parts. There are

no restrictions concerning the kind of

connection: welded, glued, screwed

with or without screw thread coils,

press fitted, etc.

Circuit Board Assembly

For over 50 years we have been

fulfilling requirements of high reliability

sectors of industry, such as defense,

aerospace, space and avionics.

We are familiar with the supply of

PCB assemblies which meet the very

highest quality and reliability standards.

Through the years we have invested

on a regulary basis in our production

equipment and lay-out, resulting

in a state of the art machinery for

assembling your PCB’s.

Our close partnerships with multiple

PCB manufacturers enables us to

propose the right match for your needs

(urgency, design complexity, volume

and cost). We have full capability to

assemble all types of SMD components,

such as 00105 chips, BGA, BGA, POP,

placement, leadless devices and odd-

form components.

Conventional leaded components are

prepared in-house and are selectively

soldered or – if possible – through

intrusive soldering.

For over 20 years we have been

soldering complete boards onto silver or

gold plated cooling plates and housings

for high frequency applications using

our vacuum equipped vapor phase

soldering machine.

Soldering inspection according to

IPC-A610 / J-STD-001 is completed

through AOI, high resolution X-ray and

microscope by a very experienced staff.

Mechanical parts production

Conformal coating (UV or non-UV) is

accomplished by means of a Nordson

Asymtec and PVA coater. If desired, the

boards can be cleaned ultrasonically or

conventionally.

All processes are equipped for both

lead-free and lead-based production.

Our Production Support Software

enables paperless manufacturing on

each workstation. Full traceability can

be offered.

For the production of your substrates

we have a fully equipped Class 10.000

Clean Room.

We are focussing on wedge-wedge

bonding, ball-wedge bonding, parallel

gap welding and thermosonic bonding

of gold wires and gold ribbon for small

series. Modules can be hermetically

sealed under protective atmosphere

and leak tests can be performed.

Plasma cleaning, environmental stress

screening, burn-in tests and shock tests

are part of our know-how.Circuit board assembly

System Assembly

Cable Manufacturing

Our own cable manufacturing is

capable to create every possible cable,

cable assembly, wire harness and RF

cable assembly, always custom made

and according to IPC-620. We can

design custom cable assemblies from

customer specifications or assemblies

can be fabricated from customer

provided drawings. The cable product

range consists of AWG 28 single wires

up to stranded wire 6mm², multi pair,

semi-rigid and flat ribbon cables.

We are also very experienced in the

manufacturing of wire harnesses.

Meanly single wires are used in the

harness but can easily be combined

with all kind of cables such as coaxial

cables, multi-pair cables, etc.

With flexible, semi-rigid, and hand-

formable cable assemblies, our RF

cable assembly is capable to fulfill your

demands in this specific segment of

cable assembly.

All types of cables can be provided with

the necessary product labeling.

We also perform high voltage isolation

testing, as well as continuity and

capacitance testing. Long years of

test experience allows us to perform

MIL-SPEC and screening tests.

Sub Assembly

From integrating a PCB into a box

to the building of complex assemblies

– it has been our business for

over 50 years. Mounting, gluing,

interconnecting, wire wrapping, sealing

and pressure testing of all types of

sub-assemblies can be done.

If the positioning of components or

backplanes is critical we build tooling

to guarantee the interchangeability of

your products. Labeling of the products

and configuration management is a

standard practice.

Cable manufacturing Sub assembly

Integration

As a one-stop-shop we can integrate

the produced subassemblies, cables

and PCB’s into racks. Those racks can

be standard of the shelf or customized

to your needs. Integration of your own

modules into a system is also an option.

Given the fact that we have all

competences and machinery in house

we can act very fast to any last minute

change during integration or even

during your Factory Acceptance Test.

Qualified people perform electrical

safety tests on your racks and are in

close contact with test institutes to

perform EMC measurements on your

products.

TESTINGEvery product is tested prior to shipping thus ensuring our customers the highest

quality standards and fit for purpose. We specialize in testing boards, modules

and complete systems. Our test equipment covers a range from DC up till 26 GHz.

Digital boards are tested with a Boundary Scan Tool, Power supply’s with

remote control loads, RF modules with network-, spectrum- and/or peak power

analyzers.

On customer request our products undergo stringent environmental and stress

screening tests (temperature/shock/vibration) in specialized test rooms.

Obviously our test equipment is calibrated. To reduce the down time of our test

equipment due to calibration, a calibration department was established.

This developed into a department which fulfills 2000 calibrations on electrical

and mechanical test equipment on a yearly basis. Not only for our own devices

but also for our customers.

If necessary, repairs are carried out by this department so the down time is kept

as low as possible.

QUALITY MANAGEMENTOur overall quality culture has always been, and is still the elementary basis of

the Advionics organization! More than 20 years ago we obtained the ISO 9001

certificate for our existing quality management system. Quality is integrated in

every level and every employee of our organization, due to frequent meetings,

workgroups, team corners, statistics …

In 2013 we extended the scope of our Quality management system to fulfill

the demands of the aerospace supplier quality system EN 9100:2009.

We also established the integration of the lean manufacturing principles in
