What We Solve
The Problems We Hear Most
Overseas delays killing your timeline
Our dedicated prototype line, in as little as 10 days, and US-based production means no 6-week ocean freight surprises. Iterate faster, launch on time.
Impersonal CMs who don't know your project
At Excel you get a single point of contact who knows your board, your volume, and your timeline, not a ticketing system.
Quality surprises at delivery
ISO 9001:2015 + IPC certifications + 4 AOI machines mean quality issues are caught before they ship, not after they arrive.
Handoffs between design and manufacturing
We handle design, assembly, test, coating, and box build under one roof. Nothing falls through the cracks between vendors.
Can't get someone on the phone
We're in Elkhart, Indiana. You can visit. You can call. You can meet the engineer who built your board.
