Precision Machining
Close interaction between design and manufacturing teams supports prototype and production hardware, fixtures and tooling while helping resolve manufacturability questions early.
MANUFACTURING & FACILITIES
Vertically Integrated Manufacturing for Mission-Critical Timing and RF
FEI combines specialized fabrication, microelectronics, electronic assembly and verification within a disciplined U.S. manufacturing environment. This creates tighter technical control from early hardware through final acceptance—and a more direct path between design intent, process evidence and delivered performance.
VERTICALLY INTEGRATED
From specialized processes to accepted hardware.
Keeping critical manufacturing disciplines close to engineering reduces handoffs, supports configuration control and preserves process knowledge across the product lifecycle. FEI’s integrated approach connects precision hardware, resonators, atomic components, microelectronics, electronic assembly and verification in one disciplined manufacturing story.
MANUFACTURING DISCIPLINES
Six disciplines. One connected process.
Crystal Fabrication
FEI’s crystal process connects material preparation, orientation, precision finishing, electrode deposition, mounting, sealing and screening to support stability and repeatability.
Atomic Components
Specialized glass, vapor-cell and vacuum processes support the controlled manufacture of critical atomic components and their integration into timing assemblies.
Microelectronics
Hybrid assembly, die attach, wire bonding, hermetic packaging and screening connect precision component design to reliable subsystem performance.
Electronic Assembly
SMT and through-hole assembly, inspection, cable and harness work, staking, coating and system-level integration support disciplined board-to-subsystem manufacturing.
Test & Final Acceptance
Electrical, RF, environmental and automated verification connect performance evidence, configuration status, documentation and release discipline before delivery.
