PCB assembly is at the heart of our activities. At ACE-JTC, we take care of the complete assembly of PCBs (SMT and THT) with an eye for quality, repeatability and traceability. Whether it concerns prototypes, small series or medium volumes, we guarantee the same meticulous approach.

Our production is equipped with advanced machines and processes, including automatic solder paste (SPI) and optical inspection (AOI), X-ray inspection, selective soldering, wave soldering, and, where necessary, flying probe and functional testing, conformal coating and potting.

An important distinguishing feature is our self-developed MES system, which ensures continuous board tracking and full digital traceability – not only for SMD and THT, but also for box build and mechanical integration. Every step in the process is automatically logged and can be traced down to the lowest level, so that in the event of deviations or questions, we can look back and see exactly who did what, when and how.

All work processes are digitally controlled, and the results are reflected in a monthly ISO-compliant quality measurement based on real-time data.

Thanks to our flexible structure, we can switch quickly, both for rapid prototyping and for series production with reliable delivery performance.

Quality, transparency and control – that is our standard in PCB assembly.

Everything your project needs, and more...

In addition to our core expertise in electronics assembly, we also offer all the extras to complete your product: prototyping, coating & potting, cabling & wiring, and functional testing. Everything in-house, by our own experts & machinery.

Prototyping

Fast prototypes: from idea to PCBA in no time!

At ACE-JTC Electronics, we know that speed often makes all the difference. That is why we offer a flexible and rapid prototyping process that perfectly matches the needs of our customers.

For many projects, we can assemble prototypes directly at our facility in Riemst. This ensures short lines of communication, complete control over quality and extremely fast turnaround times. This allows us to deliver a first working model in just two weeks — ideal for design validation and technical testing.

When projects require even shorter turnaround times or specific production capacities, we call on our strategic partners within the group:

  • Proto-Electronics – Specialised in super-fast PCB assembly with an online ordering platform.
  • Edgeflex – Innovative partner for complex and precision prototypes with high quality requirements.

Thanks to this combination of internal capabilities and external fast channels, we can handle any prototype project — whether it's a single test board or a series of pre-production units.

Your advantage: minimal waiting time, maximum design freedom and the certainty that your prototype will flow directly into a production-ready solution.

Coating/potting

Sustainable protection for your electronics

Electronics only perform optimally when they are properly protected. At ACE-JTC Electronics, we offer professional coating and potting solutions to protect PCBs and components against moisture, dust, chemicals, vibrations and temperature fluctuations.

Conformal coating – targeted protection

With conformal coating, we apply a thin, protective layer to the PCBA. This transparent coating fits perfectly to the shape of the components and provides:

  • Resistance to moisture and corrosion
  • Better durability in demanding environments
  • Less risk of malfunctions or short circuits

Potting – maximum shielding

Potting involves completely encasing the PCB or components in a protective resin (polyurethane). This offers:

  • Maximum protection against vibrations, impacts and extreme conditions
  • Extra insulation and mechanical strength
  • Longer service life, even in the most demanding applications
  • Extra protection of intellectual property

We offer coating and potting in-house, with different materials and processes tailored to your application. In combination with our assembly, we guarantee a fully integrated product finish — no extra transport, no extra risks.

Your advantage: you receive electronics that are ready for the most challenging environments, directly from a single production flow.

Cabling & wiring

A reliable connection is crucial to the performance of any electronic system. At ACE-JTC Electronics, we assemble cables, cable harnesses and cabling solutions entirely according to customer specifications.

Customised cabling

From simple connection cables to complex cable harnesses with dozens of connections — we deliver exactly what your application requires. Our specialists work with:

  • Various cable types and connectors
  • Custom-cut and finished lengths
  • Clear labelling and bundling
  • Quality checks on every assembly

Flexibility in volumes and series

We produce both single prototypes and small and medium-sized series, and thanks to our in-house assembly capacity, we can quickly switch gears when a project requires extra or urgent delivery.

Integration into the overall project

Because cabling & wiring is often just one step in a larger process, we integrate it seamlessly into our PCBA, coating or box-build processes. This means you receive a ready-to-use product without additional suppliers or links in the chain.

Your advantage: perfectly fitting cabling, fully tested and ready for immediate use.

Functional testing

At ACE-JTC Electronics, quality control does not stop at visual inspection, AOI or quality department. We perform extensive functional testing to ensure that every product works as it should — even before it reaches your final product or end customer.

More than standard testing

In addition to performing functional tests on existing test setups, we go one step further:

  • We develop and build fully customised test benches in close consultation with the customer.
  • These test benches are designed to simulate and check your specific electronic modules or systems.
  • The result: repeatable, reliable and fast quality checks that perfectly match your application.

Long-term benefit

Because we design and manufacture the test bench in-house, the same test setup can be reused later for series production, maintenance or service. This saves you time, prevents errors and keeps the test methodology consistent.

Your benefit: guaranteed quality, fully tested products and a test solution that grows with you and your product.
