How Do Consumer and Computer Electronic Companies Use Konlida?
Rapid Prototyping
Take advantage of design for manufacturability (DFM) feedback in our instant quotes to make adjustments to part design before any manufacturing begins, then navigate quickly through early- and late-stage prototyping with ease.
Low-Volume Production
Ramp up production to get quality end-use parts to market fast and use batch production to reduce financial risk with no minimum order quantity (MOQ) and low total cost of ownership (TCO).
Mass Production
Order quantities up to 1 million+ parts with volume pricing built to fit your budget.
End-of-Life Production
Reduce your financial risk and warehousing costs during end of product life by ordering low volumes of product parts just in time.
Range of Materials
Choose from hundreds of production-grade plastics through injection molding along with more than 40 different metal materials for end-use components available through our 3D printing, machining, and sheet metal services.
| We are the fastest and most comprehensive digital manufacturer in the industry with more than 16 years of experience developing products for innovative consumer electronics companies around the world. |

What Materials Work Best for Consumer and Computer Electronic Components?
ABS
This reliable thermoplastic is widely used in industries like consumer electronics. It brings general-purpose performance for parts like electronics enclosures and handheld devices, and is also relatively inexpensive.
Aluminum
This material can be machined or formed through sheet metal fabrication to create housings, brackets, or other metal parts that need high strength and low weight are required.
Elastomers
Available in both 3D printing and injection molding, choose from several elastomeric materials for parts that need impact resistance or flexibility. Overmolding is also available for components and products with ergonomic grips, buttons, or handles.
Advanced Photopolymers
When your application requires greater mechanical properties for end use parts, we provide several advanced photopolymer options offering high strength, good impact resistance and excellent surface finishes.
Polycarbonate
This strong and extremely impact resistant thermoplastic has a low shrink and good dimensional stability. It’s a transparent plastic that is available in optically clear grades, which works well for transparent covers and housings.
Common Consumer Electronics Applications
We have several capabilities within our manufacturing services catered to the consumer electronic industry. Here are a few applications we frequently see.
- Housings
- Fixtures
- Consoles
- Heat sinks
- Casings
- Knobs
- Handles
- Lenses
- Buttons
- Switches
Breaking New Ground in Transducer Technology
Sonos, the renowned leader in home audio innovation, has redefined sound with their latest product, Arc Ultra—the first consumer device to incorporate the groundbreaking Sound Motion™ technology. The achievement means a monumental leap in audio performance, delivering twice the bass of its predecessor while creating a slimmer, more refined design.
