Manufacturing Electronics/PC Based Hardware
Discussion
Hi all,
I'm developing an idea for a hardware box to perform a particular application. It's going to run some form of Linux and the innards will bear close resemblence to those of a PC, although repackaged with an LCD interface.
My question is around manufacturing - how can I investigate the cost/process of fabricating such a product on a relatively large scale (e.g. batches of 1000 plus)?
At the moment I just need ballpark numbers to put in a spreadsheet, but know very little about manufacturing or even where to start investigating. Am hoping some of you knowledgeable folk are able to point me in the right direction.
Many thanks!
