Docking Stations (Docking Cradles)
Elpac docking stations range from simple docking cradles with single connectors for battery charging and data exchange... to multi-purpose, multi-bay intelligent docking stations with sophisticated charging capabilities, multiple data ports and I/Os for numerous peripheral devices. We have developed considerable expertise in this area, developing custom docking stations for major international OEMs.
Elpac offers a total "design to manufacture" approach. We’ll take your product concept, develop fully functional working models (complete with charging, transmission ports and other I/O capabilities) and produce finished product – all in a matter of weeks. Our approach includes working closely with our customers to address all aspects of the design – form factor, power, charging parameters, data transmission, mechanical and electrical requirements, cosmetic match, safety, agency approvals and more.
We utilize the most popular design tools (e.g. PRO-E and Solid Works) to facilitate the exchange of information between your engineering team and ours. When engaged in a project, we give customers a detailed schedule (e.g. GANTT chart) at the beginning, and hold weekly conference calls between your engineering team and ours to keep you informed every step of the way.
