Custom assembly service
Knitter-Switch has announced a custom assembly service that brings together Knitter-Switch products with customer-specified cabling, connectors and other electromechanical parts.
According to Hanspeter Kulb, chief executive officer at Knitter-Switch, there is growing demand from customers to reduce their supplier count and look for complete electromechanical assemblies rather than single components from several sources.
As well as improved quality control there are cost benefits when dealing with a single supplier.
'What we have put in place with this assembly service is the capability to offer design and product procurement as well as assembly and test to a variety of electrical and safety specifications in addition to RoHS compliance for the finished assembly,' said Kulb.
Practically every Knitter-Switch part can be supplied ready wired or cabled with the appropriate connector or termination solution.
These include all types of switches from key switches, pushbuttons, toggles and rotary encoded switches to encoders, LED indicators and membrane keypads.
Knitter-Switch can provide full engineering support and lead times from original enquiry to first samples can be very short.
