Electronic Storage Cabinet

A customer planned to manufacture an electronic storage cabinet to house hardware. They called on SMPI because we could offer manufacturing input and help them develop and build a group of prototypes before they’d proceed with eventual production. This project had an aggressive timeline to meet their end customers’ needs.

SMPI’s engineering team reviewed the project as a whole, asking questions and learning what was truly important on these units. From there, our team worked to provide the best manufacturing process suggestions. The customer incorporated SMPI’s cost-saving ideas into their design, and we successfully helped them reach their part cost goals.
