Our customers can be found in a wide range of industries, including electronics and computers, automotive, audio-visual, telecommunications, instrumentation, and retail (POS).

TECHNICAL COMPETENCE - Atek has been supplying custom cable assemblies to customers worldwide for nearly ten years. When reviewing your cable assembly needs, we bring a lot of experience to the table. We provide important technical advice that can improve quality, decrease cost, and/or provide better performance. For example, in some cases we will be able to provide options for using alternative connectors that may be less expensive but of equivalent quality to a name brand connector.

QUALITY - Your order for custom cable assemblies from Atek is guaranteed to be 100% defect-free upon delivery. Each and every cable assembly on the production line receives stringent quality treatment: electrical properties are tested on computerized equipment during several stages of production, and appearance and length are carefully checked manually. We understand that quality is a result of establishing and following good processes and procedures, and that begins when you first contact us. First we provide detailed drawings for your approval, then we provide samples for your approval, and only after those two steps are confirmed to have been done correctly do we go to production. Once production is underway, we not only do multiple computerized and manual tests of your cable assemblies as they go through the steps of materials preparation, termination (solder or crimp), inner molding, and outer molding, but we also use various statistical testing procedures to monitor and measure quality and make sure output stays within tightly defined allowable ranges. All of our larger production facilities are ISO9002.

ON-TIME DELIVERY - Our sales office, located in Santa Ana, California, provides customers with responsible and responsive service. We take pride in providing timely delivery through good planning and strict adherence to schedules (and not promising commitments that we cannot make). We are highly experienced in the handling of domestic and international logistics and consistently make sure that products get to where they need to go when they need to be there. Atek maintains high volume, big discount accounts with several courier services, trucking companies, and freight forwarders. Whether it has to move fast or can go a slower way, we know how to deliver. You will not only like our delivery capabilities, you will also like the way we proactively communicate shipping information to you. Please note that we even offer warehousing for JIT delivery from Santa Ana if needed.

COMPETITIVE PRICING - With Atek you get the best of all worlds: local service, ISO quality, and offshore pricing. Our quotations are always very reasonable, and if you have a price target in mind, let us know and we'll see if we can help you meet that goal.
