Simulation

This step in the design process is what gives Elma Bustronic and you the edge in backplane design. Computer simulation software is used to ensure the integrity and performance of your backplane design. Using computer simulations to predict the characteristics of a custom backplane design eliminates "trial and error," resulting in a faster turnaround time and guaranteeing that your product meets or exceeds its design specifications.

Assembly

After a rigorous inspection of the incoming components, your backplane is carefully assembled in our plant in Fremont, California, using press-fit and surface mount technologies whenever applicable.

Quality Assurance

Elma Bustronic is renowned for its quality, our reputation depends on it. As an ISO9001 certified company, we recognize the need for complete quality assurance. Our unique testing procedure utilizes custom test hardware, written in-house specifically for your backplane.

Finished Product

After stringent computer-based testing and final inspection, your product is ready for shipment. Our customers have complete confidence in the quality and performance of their backplanes, chassis, extender boards, or other accessories.
