Nx Gen Inventors

Product engineering that survives contact with the real world

We design connected electronic products end to end: architecture, hardware, firmware, enclosure, and the certification path. Our teams work to a written specification and a test plan from day one, so validation confirms the design rather than discovering it.

Overview

Engineering at Nx Gen

We design connected electronic products end to end: architecture, hardware, firmware, enclosure, and the certification path. Our teams work to a written specification and a test plan from day one, so validation confirms the design rather than discovering it.

What you receive
Specification and test plan
Written before the first schematic, and the thing validation is measured against
Schematics and PCB layout
Source files with the component library and constraint set, not exported PDFs
Costed bill of materials
Second sources named wherever a part carries lifecycle or lead-time risk
DFM and DFT pack
Fabrication notes, assembly drawings, test points and fixture requirements
Certification dossier
Test plans, laboratory reports, and the evidence a compliance body asks for
Business value
  • A costed route from concept to a manufacturable design
  • Fewer design spins through early DFM and DFT review
  • Certification planned before the first prototype, not after
Engineering method
  1. Define
    Specification and test plan
  2. Design
    Schematic, layout, firmware
  3. Validate
    EMC, thermal, reliability
  4. Transfer
    DFM pack to the line
