GBX Turnkey Solutions: End-to-End Support for Product Development
Welcome to GBX Insights, In this edition we focus on our end-to-end turnkey services for electronic product development and manufacturing. At GBX Technology, we provide technical solutions for companies looking to bring reliable, production-ready devices to market—whether you’re building a new product, optimizing an existing design, or scaling to high-volume manufacturing.
Today’s topic is an overview of how integrated services across electronic design, firmware development, and manufacturing enable faster time-to-market, reduce overhead, and ensure consistency across all stages of product realization.
If your business depends on reliable embedded systems or connected hardware—whether for medical, industrial, consumer, or commercial applications—this is designed for you.
Why Turnkey?
Integrated product development it’s a technical and operational advantage. When electronic design, firmware, and manufacturing are executed under a unified process, it allows:
- Tighter control over performance parameters
- Rapid iterations with full traceability
- Simplified BOM and lifecycle management
- Faster transition from prototype to production
- Aligned firmware-hardware integration for validation and test automation
At GBX, we combine these verticals under one roof, optimizing cost, quality, and timelines.
Our Core Technical Capabilities
1. Electronic Design (PCBA)
We specialize in high-reliability Printed Circuit Board Assemblies, focusing on:
- Multi-layer PCB design (Rigid, Flex, Rigid-Flex)
- Signal integrity and power delivery network optimization
- High-speed digital and mixed-signal design
- Analog front ends, sensor interfaces, RF and antenna design
- EMI/EMC mitigation strategies
- Thermal and mechanical design integration
- Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Test (DFT)
We ensure component availability and lifecycle optimization from the initial schematic phase, leveraging Altium Designer and OrCAD tools for schematic capture and layout.
2. Firmware Development
Our embedded systems team works with a broad range of microcontrollers and SoCs (STM32, Nordic, Espressif, Microchip, TI, etc.), delivering:
- Bare-metal and RTOS-based firmware
- Driver development and peripheral management
- IoT protocols: MQTT, BLE, WiFi, LoRaWAN
- OTA (Over-the-Air) update integration
- Low-power strategies and power state optimization
- Security layers (secure boot, encrypted comms, authentication)
We ensure testability through modular architectures and implement CI pipelines where applicable.
3. Manufacturing & Global Delivery
We offer full-service manufacturing and worldwide shipping with:
- Pilot runs and scalable production
- Functional testing and in-circuit test (ICT) setups
- AOI/X-Ray Inspection
- Custom packaging and labeling
- Global logistics management
- Regulatory documentation support (RoHS, CE, FCC)
Our process ensures component traceability, quality control at every stage, and competitive pricing at scale.
Real-World Applications
Here are some real-life examples of how our turnkey approach supports diverse industries:
- Medical Devices: Full-stack development for a wearable health monitoring device, from analog signal acquisition to BLE firmware and compliance-ready manufacturing.
- Air Quality Systems: Took over a legacy design, redesigned critical analog front-end and firmware, and delivered cost-optimized production batches.
- Smart Vending Machines: Developed modular controller boards with wireless telemetry, enabling multi-region deployment with real-time diagnostics and OTA updates.
Whether our clients came to us with a concept, a partially developed prototype, or a legacy product needing re-engineering—our unified approach brought clarity and execution.
