Embedded Controller and Electronics Design and Make service
We bring many years of experience delivering innovative cost effective solutions with reliability designed in.
We offer a full design service integrating electronics and software to ensure seamless functionality. We work closely with you to add value to your NPD process and deliver solutions built to meet your product's specific requirements.
We manufacture over 100,000 PCBAs annually, supporting customers with a range of production volumes from 10s to 10,000s
Our Process
From Idea To Production
At VxI Power, we start by thoroughly understanding your ambitions, product requirements and desired functionality.
We will work with you to scope design options including the user interface type to find the best compromise between cost and functionality. It could be a basic membrane switch, a sophisticated touchscreen interface, or something in between.
Working together we will consider the approval requirements for your product and market at this stage and any impact this has on the electronics and software design.
As specialists in hardware design and manufacturing VxI considers how the electronics will integrate within your product including mechanical packaging, wire routings and full product assembly.
Thermal management, operating environment and EMC compliance are key considerations.
As users of Altium, AutoCAD and SolidWorks we can liaise easily with clients and suppliers whatever the CAD package.
Whether you prefer to be involved in component selection or need a turnkey solution we will set up a robust cost-effective supply chain.
Software design sees the integration of sensors, outputs, control algorithms and the creation of the user interface.
We agree factory configuration requirements and user upgrade options. Access to settings and security levels are defined.
We understand customers need responsive, reliable and efficient code. By getting this right we can minimise processor and memory costs.
In this critical NPD/NPI phase, we recognise the importance of delivering hardware swiftly.
With project requirements clarified, we design the schematic, layout the PCB and generate a CAD model of the populated board.
Meanwhile, critical components are sourced and code development begins.
Although timescales vary by project complexity, we typically provide initial working hardware to customers within 8 weeks using our own rapid prototyping processes.
If required we then work closely with you as testing and optimisation work begins with the electronics now embedded within your product prototypes.
VxI Power simplifies compliance.
From the outset, we collaborate closely to align with specific regulations, helping you through the compliance process efficiently.
Our in-house pre-compliance EMC testing identifies potential issues early, allowing for timely resolutions to avoid costly delays. This proactive approach not only speeds up time-to-market but also provides peace of mind.
At VxI, we go beyond design, offering a comprehensive manufacturing service for high-quality PCBAs and electronic assemblies. Our UK-based facilities are equipped to handle everything from small batches to large-scale production, ensuring flexibility and reliability throughout.
By combining our design expertise with full-scale manufacturing capabilities, we ensure a smooth transition from development to production.

At VxI we will support you and your product throughout its design lifecycle.
We take your expectations into consideration when selecting components and supply partners to ensure compatibility and consistent long-term availability.
We also understand you will want to upgrade and update your product and can support you with this.
VxI can undertake warranty and out of warranty reliability investigation with trend analysis and testing of returned products and PCBs.
