ADCO Circuits boosts speed and reduces costs through front-end innovation and smart technology

Strategic capital investments and strong front-end processes key drivers in new advancements.

April 17, 2025 – Rochester Hills, MI – ADCO Circuits, a leading provider of high-performance electronic assemblies, continues to drive innovation by refining and investing in front-end processes and advanced manufacturing technologies. These efforts streamline production, reduce costs, and accelerate delivery for customers across industries.

Optimized Front-End Collaboration for Greater Efficiency

ADCO Circuits has strengthened its front-end engineering processes to maximize efficiency and cost savings for clients. By working closely with customers early in development, the team identifies opportunities for improvement, eliminating unnecessary steps and optimizing manufacturing workflows.

A prime example of this collaborative approach is ADCO’s Circuits’ work on a seat belt tensioning system for the automotive sector. Before production, ADCO Circuits’ engineering team partnered with lead forming and custom tape-and-reel suppliers to ensure precise component handling for optimal vehicle safety. This innovative solution reduced manufacturing complexity, cut costs, and improved overall production efficiency.

Similarly, when a leading agricultural equipment manufacturer faced challenges with their wiper motor control board, ADCO Circuits streamlined production, significantly enhancing product reliability while reducing costs for the customer.

Both of these examples are the result of a fine-tuned front-end process.

Strategic Investments in Advanced Technologies

To further enhance efficiency, ADCO Circuits has made substantial capital investments in new technology. The recent acquisition of thermal adhesive dispensing systems has improved product quality and consistency while reducing manufacturing costs and shortening production cycles.

“Our focus on innovative engineering and strategic investments enables us to provide our clients with efficient, cost-effective solutions without compromising on quality,” said Marc Damman, President of ADCO Circuits. “We are laser-focused on continuous improvement and excellence in electronic assembly.”

ADCOproto 2.0: Accelerating Prototyping

ADCO Circuits’ commitment to innovation is also reflected in the launch of ADCOproto 2.0, an online tool that provides engineers with instant component availability for uploaded bills of materials (BOMs). This platform accelerates the prototyping process, helping clients bring products to market faster.
