Our processes are optimized to accelerate your product development cycle, providing high-fidelity, “looks-like, feels-like” prototypes in a matter of days. As you transition to production, our scalable capabilities ensure we can deliver tens of thousands of parts with the consistent quality and cosmetic perfection that consumers expect from a premium product.

The Celerity Precision Advantage for Consumer Electronics

Flawless Cosmetic Finishes

We are experts in achieving "Class A" cosmetic finishes. From fine bead blasting and anodizing on aluminum to high-gloss polishing on plastics, we have the expertise to deliver a premium look and feel.

Rapid Prototyping & Iteration

We help you innovate faster. Our streamlined processes deliver high-quality, dimensionally accurate prototypes in as little as 3-5 days, allowing your design teams to quickly test, validate, and iterate.

Expertise in Lightweight Metals

We have extensive experience machining the materials that define modern electronics, including 6061 and 6063 aluminum for enclosures and frames, and stainless steel for durable, high-strength components.

Scalable, High-Volume Production

Our facility is designed to scale with your success. We can seamlessly transition from producing ten prototypes to a full production run of 100,000+ parts, maintaining absolute consistency and quality.

Design for Manufacturability (DFM) Feedback

Our engineers provide critical DFM feedback to optimize your designs for mass production, helping you reduce costs, improve assembly, and enhance the final product's durability.

Strategic Location & Supply Chain

Located in Shenzhen, we are at the center of the global electronics supply chain, enabling us to manage projects efficiently and integrate seamlessly with your other manufacturing partners.

From Concept to Consumer: Our CE Manufacturing Process

RFQ & Rapid DFM

Securely upload your CAD files. We provide a competitive quote and expert DFM feedback focused on cosmetic outcomes and mass production efficiency within 24 hours.

Prototype Phase

We rapidly machine your prototypes, applying the specified finishes to create high-fidelity models for design validation, marketing, and investor presentations.

Golden Sample & Process Validation

Before mass production, we produce a "golden sample" for your final approval and lock in all manufacturing and finishing parameters to ensure consistency.

Scalable Mass Production

We utilize our automated and optimized production cells to manufacture your components at scale, ensuring consistent quality across the entire run.

Cosmetic Inspection & Quality Control

Every part undergoes a rigorous cosmetic and dimensional inspection. We have established clear standards for "Class A," "Class B," and "Class C" surfaces.

Assembly & Global Logistics

We can perform sub-assembly services and manage global logistics to deliver your parts directly to your assembly line, just-in-time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a "Class A" surface?

In product design, a “Class A” surface is any primary cosmetic surface that the user sees and touches. We have rigorous inspection standards to ensure these surfaces are free of any scratches, dents, or finish inconsistencies.

Can you match the anodized colors of major brands?

Yes, we have extensive experience in color matching for Type II anodizing to achieve popular electronic finishes like “Space Gray,” “Silver,” and “Gold.” This requires careful process control and we often use colorimeters to ensure consistency.

What is the best material for a laptop enclosure?

Aluminum, typically 6061 or 6063, is the most common choice. It is lightweight, strong, feels premium, and can be beautifully finished with anodizing and bead blasting.

How fast can you deliver prototypes?

Our rapid prototyping service is designed for speed. For most machined aluminum or plastic parts, we can deliver finished prototypes to you in as little as 3-7 days.

Can you handle production volumes of 100,000+ pieces?

Yes. We can design dedicated production cells and use automation to efficiently scale our manufacturing to meet high-volume production demands while maintaining quality.

What is bead blasting and why is it so popular for electronics?

Bead blasting is a process that uses fine glass beads to create a very fine, smooth, non-reflective matte texture. It is popular because it creates a premium, fingerprint-resistant finish that feels great to the touch.

Do you offer assembly services?

Yes, we can perform sub-assembly services, such as installing heat-set inserts into plastic parts, bonding components, or installing simple hardware, to simplify your final assembly process.

How do you ensure cosmetic quality across a large production run?

We establish approved “limit samples” or a “golden sample” at the start of the project. Every part produced is then compared against this approved standard under controlled lighting conditions by our trained cosmetic inspectors.

Can you machine logos or lettering?

Yes, we can use fine-end mills to engrave logos directly into the part. For a different look, we also offer precision laser marking services.

How do you protect our new product designs?

We operate with the utmost discretion and are committed to protecting your intellectual property. We sign NDAs for every project and have strict internal controls on data access.
