High volume consumer electronics production
Full electronics redesign, product improvement, design for manufacturing, sourcing, production, and quality control with TofuPilot.
From concept to factory.
Product development, manufacturing optimisation, and test infrastructure.
Swiss engineering consultancy.
We develop products from initial concept to series production. We redesign existing products and take over manufacturing - typically at a fraction of current production costs.
Industrial design, mechanical engineering, electronics, embedded systems - one team, every stage. 100,000+ units delivered to market.
Based in Lausanne, Switzerland. Manufacturing partners in Switzerland, France, the UK and China.
Capabilities
Product development
From initial concept to series production. Industrial design, mechanical engineering, electronics, and embedded systems. We handle requirements, prototyping, validation, and manufacturing ramp-up. Repairability, end-of-life, and environmental impact considered from the start.
Redesign for manufacturing
Product too expensive or too slow to produce. We analyse the design, identify cost drivers, and redesign for faster assembly, lower unit cost, and reduced defect rate. Component rationalisation, process optimisation.
Electronics & embedded systems
Circuit board design, embedded firmware, power systems, sensor integration. We design for production constraints from the start - tooling and test requirements are part of the initial specification.
Test bench design & automation
Custom test benches for production validation. Automated test sequences, repeatable across stations, scalable to production volumes. We use TofuPilot as test engine and analytics platform - we contribute to its development and request features directly.
Industrialisation & manufacturing
Supply chain setup, production launch, quality control, certification. We manage the full production cycle with our manufacturing partners - typically at a fraction of current production costs.
Manufacturing network
Direct partnerships with manufacturers including Micro Manufacturing Limited in Shenzhen. Precision manufacturing in Switzerland and France, volume production in southern China - selected and qualified per project.
Technology transfer
Production relocation between China and Europe, in both directions. Documentation, tooling adaptation, supplier qualification, process validation at the new site.

Project coordination, PCB design, and systems integration for a research CubeSat.
Development Process
01
Specify
Define requirements, constraints, and acceptance criteria. Regulatory landscape, manufacturing constraints, target unit cost - established before design work begins.
02
Prototype
Iterate on electronics, mechanics, and firmware. Functional prototypes to validate performance and identify integration issues before production commitment.
03
Validate
Custom test benches, validation plans, test data acquisition. Repeatable test procedures that transition directly into production quality control.
04
Industrialise
Partner selection, tooling, production ramp-up. We manage the transition from validated prototype to series production.
05
Support
Test infrastructure maintenance, production support, sustaining engineering. Calibration and validation throughout the product lifecycle.
