Jig designs are created through the wealth of experiences from producing countless varieties of products and a high level of commitment to quality.
ITOSHIMA FACTORY
Braveridge Itoshima Factory located in Itoshima city, Fukuoka, procures materials, assembles, inspects, and delivers products.
Located conveniently 15 minutes away from the head office, we are able to provide high-quality products through detailed discussions with the development team from the very initial designing stage.
At the factory, we are also promoting conversion to a smart factory with the employment of our own products.

5 Strengths for
Itoshima Factory
Braveridge not only offers development and manufacturing contract (ODM, OEM) services that meet the needs of customers, but also BMS (Braveridge Manufacturing Services) services that adopt the resources of Itoshima Factory.
1 In-House Jig Production
All jigs used for assembly and inspection in the manufacturing processes are made in-house. We are also able to make customised jigs, and take orders for jigs alone.
Jig Design
Jig Production
Jigs are completed by assembling multiple parts made by a 3D printer or a 3D cutting machine.
Scenes of a Jig in use
The completed jigs are applied in various manufacturing processes such as processing and inspection.
2 Procurement
With our established networks, we procure parts from Japan and across the world.
Procurement Network
From mechanical to electronic parts, we are able to purchase high-quality parts with reasonable prices from all over the world. We practice 100% self-procurement.
PCB
Circuit Boards are designed through numerous discussions between head office and factories both in Japan and abroad.
Mold
We have signed contracts with a few mold factories in China, Vietnam and South Korea. The most suitable factories are selected according to the schedule and requirement of the production.
Container Acceptance
Mechanical parts manufactured overseas are imported by container units to reduce costs.
3 Contract Manufacturing
We also accept partial manufacturing contracts. Please contact us for assembly matters.
Assembly
We created a work standard form to maintain a high standard in assembly.
Processing
Bond Application
To stabilize quality and to pursue work efficiency, coating robot is in full shift to perform optimum coating.
Automatic Soldering Equipment
Automatic soldering equipment operates effectively when mass production and efficiency in manufacturing process are required.
Hand Soldering
We have introduced a certification system for hand soldering, where only certified personnel can work. This certification is renewed once a year to improve the skills of the workers.
Laser Engraving
In pursuit of higher quality product designs, we have introduced laser markers.
Laser Welding
We perform laser welding that locally melts and solidifies metal using laser light as a heat source. For the high welding speed, it is applied during machining work for small areas.
Batteries Welding
To reduce the size of product, batteries, tabs and terminals are welded with a spot welder.
4 SMT
Super small size 0402 is also mountable. (Processed at a cooperating factory with quality assurance agreement.)
SMT
It is possible to support high-density mounting of electronic circuit boards by narrowly adjacent mounting of microchip components and narrow chip CPS (Chip Size Package).
5 Speedy Shipping
Thanks to the assembly in Japan, delivery can be made within a few days once the production is complete.
Packing
High safety standards for packing to prevent the load from collapsing during transportation. Design of the packaging is made in consideration of quality.
Shipment
Shipments are arranged according to the needs of the contents, from ordinary land transportation to environmentally friendly modal shift (containers by sea)
