why choose Dsl

With over 30 years of expertise in electronic design and manufacturing, DSL deeply understands the nuances that differentiate an average Contract Electronics Manufacturer (CEM) from an exceptional one.

Our commitment to excellence is evident in our extended warranties, flexible delivery options, and the presence of on-site experts who are not just adept at designing PCBs but are masters of their craft.

35+ Years of Experience

We’ve been around since Microsoft first released Windows – technology has changed but the core principles of robust electronic design and manufacturing remain the same.

5 year warranty

5 Year Warranty

This underpins everything we do as a company, from robust processes, the latest equipment to long term reliable products.

Free NRE Logo

Free NRE

We offer free NRE manufacturing to all clients, this makes it easier for companies switching to us or working with us as a second source, reducing costs across the project.

Made in Britain

We believe in British manufacturing and so do our clients, the local support, control and quality is tantamount to everything we believe in.

5 Years Warranty

Unlike standard 1-year warranties offered by most CEMs, DSL’s confidence in our quality and robustness allows us to offer an exceptional 5-year warranty on all PCBAs. This means that long after you’ve integrated our products into your equipment and passed them onto your customers, our guarantee still stands, ensuring peace of mind and reliability.

Free NRE Manufacturing

“NRE” is the one off costs associated with manufacturing electronics, they cover the costs of programming the machinery, from how the solder paste is applied, to how the components are placed through how they are inspected in our 3D AOI machine following assembly. NRE also includes the costs of physical necessary items like solder stencils.

We offer free NRE manufacturing to make it easier for companies either wanting to make a switch to us or to use us a second source, without having to pay the usual one off NRE ‘fines/fees’ associated with doing so. We see NRE as our investment in being able to build your product.

On-Site Design engineers

Our edge over typical CEMs lies in our team of on-site design engineers. These aren’t just individuals trained in interpreting manufacturing data; they are seasoned experts who design complex PCBs daily. This depth of expertise means that even the most intricate issues are swiftly resolved, and enhancements in PCB manufacturability – encompassing cost, reliability, and yield – are seamlessly integrated into your experience with DSL.

Flexible Stock Holding

DSL revolutionizes the norm of taking entire production runs at once. We allow you to order in bulk for the best unit cost, yet give you the freedom to call off batches of any size as needed, paying only upon receipt. This approach liberates your cash flow and minimizes physical stock holding space requirements, offering a smarter, more efficient way to manage inventory.
