Most providers offer simple plating. AEM offers a complete, end-to-end lifecycle for your components, handling the complexity so you can focus on the mission.
- We source base parts directly from approved OEM distributors.
- Our proprietary, specialized Sn/Pb plating and fusion process ensures a 100% homogenous finish (minimum 5% Pb).
- We offer comprehensive testing, with 100% visual inspection (7X-10X) and optional up-screening/QCI per military standards.
- Every component is backed by a full warranty and comprehensive DPA analysis per lot.
Our proven TWM process
Our "Gold Standard" conversion process is designed for chip-scale passive components where failure is not an option.
- Homogenous finish: Ensures all termination areas—including egress and wrap-around locations—are fully converted.
- Thermal protection: Unlike hot-solder dipping, our plating process eliminates the risk of thermal shock to sensitive ceramics.
- Verification: We verify every lot using SEM/EDS and XRF inspection methods to ensure compliance and quality.
- Certified excellence: Performed within our AS9100 and ISO 9001:2015 certified facilities on both the East and West Coasts.
