Technology & Assembly
"Backplane technology lies at the heart of CTS capabilities we are
one of the largest independent custom providers of press-fit & surface
mount backplanes and have over 15 years experience in their design and
manufacture."
We recognize that backplane production is not the easiest to get right
over 15 years we have worked to build a core team of engineering,
production and support expertise at each of our facilities to deliver cost
efficient backplane solutions to customers.
CTS works with some of the largest and smallest OEMs in the technology
sector to provide flexible, reliable board assemblies from simple 8-layer
boards to the high-density, high-speed 48-layer backplanes required by the
technology-driven communications sector. All of our facilities are
controlled under ISO9001:2000 and several have market specific
accreditations such as ISO13485:2003 and AS9100.
