Product Design

Our wealth of knowledge and experience makes us the ideal choice for product development. Companies can use us as their entire engineering department, offering substantial savings over providing these facilities in house. Alternatively, our services can be used to supplement existing in house facilities.

We are able to develop new products on short timescale's, getting your concept to market in the minimum time.

Custom Designed Solutions For Special Projects

Unlike many other companies, we specialise in providing custom designed solutions for one-off special projects. Our in-house facilities allow us to provide solutions quickly and cost effectively.

Enclosure Design

In addition to electronic design we also provide product enclosure design to complete your overall product development. Our in house capabilities cover a range of technologies or should you require an enclosure design that needs a specialist in this field we can introduce you to some of the industries best designers that we have worked with and can recommend. We are also equally happy to work with an enclosure designer you have already selected.

In addition to providing complete solutions IBEX also offers individual design services to companies. These include:

• Electronic design
• Electrical design
• PCB (printed circuit board) design
• Software design
• Enclosure design
• Low volume product manufacture
• Consultancy
• Project management

Computerised Control Specialists

We are specialist computerised solution providers. Most of our designs use custom programmed embedded microcontroller's or processors to provide anything from very simple to incredibly complex computerised control. The range of devices available today is simply huge with the cost vs performance equation having become much less of a factor in new product designs. Combined with falling prices in other technology areas, such as displays, we are able to design increasing sophisticated devices with the lower and lower production costs.

We've built up massive libraries of working software modules over the years, allowing us to provide extremely competitive quotes for many projects. Our in house services include assembler, C, Visual Basic and C++.NET software design.

Environmental Design

We don't need to tell you how important environmental considerations are becoming. There are several new European Environmental Directives coming into force that have a dramatic impact on the design, manufacture and recycling of electronic products. You can take one of two views on these. They are regulations so they can of course be viewed as a hurdle and cost to your company. However they are also a business opportunity. Apart from the fact that most companies who undertake a review of their impact on the environment discover significant savings to be made, people are becoming very environmentally aware and are making buying decisions based on the environmental impact of products. This obviously affects businesses that sell to consumers, but it is also starting to have a big impact for businesses that sell to businesses. Not only are your customers influenced by your products eco friendliness, but many companies are now choosing suppliers and products based on their environmental credentials, so that they can comply with their own companies environmental policies.

We're not eco warriors and we won't try to make you one, but we are a responsible company that takes the view that the new regulations are an opportunity for all businesses. Like it or not the regulations are here to stay, and they are set to become significantly more stringent over the coming years, so why not try and turn them to your competitive advantage? We can help you achieve a reduced carbon footprint design if you wish and we can advise you on your responsibilities and legal requirements as a producer of electrical products. Please contact us or see our resources page for more information.
