Business Profile

NACE Code 26.12 - Manufacture of loaded electronic boards
Sector/Industry ICT & Software, Electronics & Electrical Equipment
Products/Services Semi-finished Products, Components, Finished Goods, Software Solutions, Engineering & Design Services
Core Products/Services Soldered Electronics consists of three business units: 1. SOLDERED FOR MAKERS We design and manufacture open-source electronic hardware products, including development boards, modules, sensors, and accessories for makers, educators, and engineers. The company's product portfolio includes the Inkplate series of e-paper display devices, Qwiic ecosystem connectors, a wide range of breakout boards and shields compatible with popular platforms such as Arduino and Raspberry Pi. In addition to hardware, Soldered provides embedded software libraries, firmware, and engineering support services to facilitate fast integration of its components into end-user projects and products. 2. SOLDERED MANUFACTURING EMS (Electronics Manufacturing Service) offered to B2B clients with fully automatic PCB Assembly lines, inspection, and post-processing, such as testing, flashing or box building. Highly profiled in the drone and automotive industry. 3. SOLDERED ENGINEERING We design custom electronic products from idea to series production for electronics products that are based on E Paper (E Ink) technology.
Key Technologies Surface Mount Technology (SMT) for PCB assembly, through-hole soldering, and automated optical inspection (AOI). The company utilizes ERP and CRM systems for production and customer management, and employs e-commerce platforms for direct B2C and B2B sales. Embedded C/C++ and Python are used for firmware and software library development. CAD/EDA tools (KiCad, Altium Designer) are used for PCB design, and cloud-based platforms support documentation, version control (GitHub), and collaborative development workflows.
Main Machinery Fully automatic PCB Assembly lines: Stencil printers, SMT pick-and-place machines for automated component placement, reflow soldering ovens, selective soldering systems for through-hole components, automated optical inspection (AOI) systems for quality control, PCB depaneling equipment, washing and drying equipment, and functional testing fixtures. The facility is equipped to handle fine-pitch components, BGA packages, and high-density PCB designs, supporting both small-batch prototyping and medium-volume production runs.
Unique Capabilities 1. E Paper / E Ink: extensive niche knowledge of the E Paper technology, both segments, mono, greyscale and color E Paper technologies in hardware, firmware and waveforms. 2. Low-power: A plethora of low-power projects have been developed. 3. Local manufacturing: manufacturing own products and offering EMS services.
Target Customers 1. SOLDERED FOR MAKERS Primary customer segments include hobbyists, makers, and STEM educators purchasing individual components and development kits via the online shop; engineering students and academic institutions using Soldered products for coursework and research projects; and professional engineers and product developers requiring rapid prototyping tools. 2. SOLDERED MANUFACTURING B2B clients based in EMEA seeking custom PCBA manufacturing. 3. SOLDERED ENGINEERING B2B clients looking to develop own product(s) based on E Paper technology.
