You may think of Optek as a sensor component company.
We are more than just that. With our ISO and QS 9000 certified manufacturing
facility located in Juarez, Mexico; and our engineering team in Carrollton,
Texas; we've been providing fully assembled and tested optoelectronic
assemblies to our customers for more than 30 years. We can be on your
shop floor within days to learn about your assembly. We will then provide
a preliminary proposal within forty-eight hours and can be in production
within a month on certain opportunities.

OPTEK is committed to leveraging the combination
of our technological resources & manufacturing expertise with innnovative
ideas to provide value added solutions to our customers. Below are a few
examples of how we helped others.
Example One - Medical Industry
This
medical customer began by purchasing off-the-shelf components from
an authorized distributor for approximately $1.00 a pair (consisting
of a transmitter and receiver)
In order to increase performance of the finished
assembly, the customer asked Optek to provide specially selected
parts.
To reduce cost by consolidating the supply
chain, the customer asked Optek to manufacture the whole assembly
including the optical components, PCB, connectors and wiring harness
with the legacy design.
Optek further reduced the cost while increasing
reliability by suggesting changes in the design of the assembly.
Example Two - Banking Industry
This banking
equipment customer began by purchasing a standard OPB855 for approximately
$1.00.
In order to optimize their sensor assembly,
they transitioned to a specially selected configuration, while continuing
to use their own contract assembler.
Optek continued to add value by soldering
the sensor, PCB and connector and eliminated a step in the supply
chain.
Example Three - Industrial
Industry
This industrial
customer began by purchasing discrete components from Optek but
were using a contract manufacturer for assembly.
As is often the case, the customer migrated
to specially selected transmitter and receivers, while still using
the contract manufacturer for final assembly.
In order to solve alignment problems with
the assembly, Optek redesigned the plastic housing and began producing
the complete assembly.
Optek further enhanced the design with custom
wires and connectors.
We're convinced
we can be your value added partner!
