Uncommon amongst contract electronics manufacturers, JJS has a high level of proficiency in non-electronics based precision mechanical assembly techniques. Added to pcb, cable and system assembly this activity gives JJS a near unique position in the market place, offering customers truly integrated manufacturing services.

Precision mechanical assembly

Often with a similar number of parts to a pcb assembly, many complex mechanical assemblies demand similarly high levels of skill, precision, accuracy and consistency to their electronic counterparts. JJS staff are highly skilled in this kind of work, including tests of mechanical and pneumatic assemblies. Management of material using the Sageline 500 MRP tool ensures that as with electronic parts, the availability of mechanical parts is scheduled for timely production.

Lean practice

Quality controlled production lines incorporate lean principles with interactive electronic documentation, works instruction and variant management. Operating 24 hour replenishment KanBan based “pull” system, mechanical assemblies can be produced to live demand. Bar-code tracking provides real time operator/variant/ progress data. JJS provides a VMI service for customers and line-side stock is maintained by suppliers on an appropriate basis.

Electrical assembly

Perceived as a less complex task, electrical wiring of switch and instrument panels is nevertheless essential in the manufacture of many systems and machines. Involving yet another set of skills which JJS has developed over the years, this work entails those same standards of accuracy and consistency associated with the more complex pcb and mechanical assembly work.

Software control

Uploading, verifying and execution of control software is carried out within the scope of a robust revision control system. JJS can provide historical records, including web based retrieval, of both hardware and software revision for a specific product and / or end user and facilitating field based software upgrade.
