Total Systems Integration
APW's total system approach features complete system integration we supply build-to-order or configure-to-order enclosure solutions with all active and passive components ready to run. Our expertise combines technical innovation with vertically integrated engineering and manufacturing. We help customers achieve significant growth by migrating them from a fragmented regional supply base to our integrated global supply capability, accelerating time-to-market and decreasing time-to-volume production.

Test, Test, Test
We test system designs in-house as part of the NPIC design validation process. This testing can include airflow analysis, EMI/RFI compliance, shock, vibration and thermal testing, and safety regulatory certifications. We routinely undertake safety agency approvals such as NEBS or TUV to complete the design process, assuring that areas of concern in the final product are addressed prior to submission to a third party test laboratory.

Global Execution, Quick Response
With APW you get both. We face our marketplace with financial strength, vertical integration capabilities, global procurement channels, program management expertise and strategic regional manufacturing locations. Our expertise combines technical innovation with vertically integrated engineering and manufacturing. We provide flexible turnkey solutions that encompass initial product design, complete program management, small- or large-volume production and direct order fulfillment--anywhere in the world.

APW does the work while our customers focus on what they do best.
