As a result, customers benefit from earlier coordination of technical, commercial and purchasing-related aspects, especially in the transition from prototypes to series production.

beflex electronic complements Kontron Electronics' service portfolio in the initial and pre-production phases of projects, from the implementation of the first functional samples to pre-production prototypes. This includes rapid prototyping, small-batch production, Class 8 cleanroom manufacturing, design services, and lifecycle management services to help ensure the long-term availability of components. A dedicated project manager, acting as the central point of contact for rapid prototyping, coordinates alignment and ensures clear responsibilities from the sampling and validation phase through to production.

Kontron Electronics has extensive experience in developing custom electronics, embedded technologies, proprietary product platforms, and series production. The product, system, and application knowledge gained through this experience allows the company to consider specific customer requirements—both technical and regulatory—from the outset. This enables relevant aspects of a secure and long-term viable infrastructure to be addressed in the initial project phases, including compliance with the Cyber ​​Resilience Act.

“With this merger, we are creating greater continuity and reliability in the planning of custom electronics projects,” says Holger Wußmann, Managing Director of Kontron Electronics GmbH. “The established structures and expertise of beflex will be retained and integrated into Kontron Electronics’ development and manufacturing structures.”.

Kontron Electronics is part of the Electronics² network. This service brand combines the expertise of Kontron, KATEK, and beflex in the development and manufacturing of electronic products and related services.
