Box-Build, System Integration & Wire/Cable Harnessing

PCBA + harness + mechanical assembly for industrial, EV, and power electronics programs
A finished electronic product is rarely a board on its own — it is a PCBA in a harness, in an enclosure, with mechanical fit, safety isolation, and end-product test. Indic's box-build practice integrates PCBAs, in-house cable and wire harnesses, mechanical assemblies, and EOL testing under one operating discipline —eliminating the hand-offs that fragment system-level quality.
1. Custom Box-Build & System Integration
For OEMs running build-to-order and configure-to-order programs where system-level integration discipline decides outcome.
Build-to-Order & Configure-to-Order Box-Build
Variant-aware kitting and routing · MES-bound bills of process per configuration · First-article inspection per variant · Configuration logic in SAP S/4HANA driving floor effectivity.
Builds: Box-Build · Certifications: IPC-A-610 Class 2/3, ISO 9001
Mechanical Assembly & Enclosure Integration
Metal injection molding, plastic injection molding, sheet metal, extrusion,and die-casting via vetted Indian supplier network · Enclosure fit, strain relief, and service-loop discipline · Mechanical FAI per program.
Builds: Box-Build + Sub-Assembly · Certifications: IPC-A-610
System-Level Functional & EOL Test
System-level FCT · EOL inspection · Hi-pot per IEC 62368-1 where applicable · Per-serial test records bound to MES.
Builds: Box-Build · Certifications: IEC 62368-1, IPC-A-610
IN PRACTICE
For a first-batch mass-production transfer to a new overseas lighting customer with no end-tester available, Indic compensated with cross-functional ownership, layered process audits, and expanded first-article checks — zero rejections, 100%customer satisfaction, follow-on awards.
2. Wire & Cable Harnessing
For variant-heavy programs where harness reliability decides end-product yield and shipping defect rates.
Multibranch Harnesses & Cable Assemblies
Multibranch harnesses up to ~2,500 points · Automotive-grade crimping with crimp-force monitoring · 3D harness assemblies · Today: built via vetted near-site supplier with full traceability and 100% electrical testing.
Builds: Harness · Certifications: IPC/WHMA-A-620 Class 2 (Class 3for aerospace on request)
Optical-Fiber & Hybrid Looms
Optical-fiber harnesses · Hybrid fiber + electrical looms · 100% continuity and hi-pot testing · Bend-radius and strain-relief discipline.
Builds: Harness · Certifications: IPC/WHMA-A-620 Class 2/3
Process Quality Controls (Welding, Crimping, Potting)
Ultrasonic welding · Crimp-force monitoring per cycle · Potting /over molding · Low-pressure molding (LPM).
Builds: Harness + Sub-Assembly · Certifications: IPC/WHMA-A-620
IN PRACTICE
Indic's Phase II commitment brings harness manufacturing fully in-house — a ~1,500 sq ft dedicated cell inside the 80K+ sq ft expansion, eliminating outsource hand-offs and consolidating IPC/WHMA-A-620 Class 2 discipline (Class3 on request) under Indic's direct quality control.
3. EV / Power Assembly Integration
For EV powertrains, chargers, and power-electronics programs where PCBA+ harness + box-build must converge under hi-pot certification windows.
High-Voltage Power Assemblies
HV Battery Junction Box (BJB) · Battery Disconnect Unit (BDU) · Power Distribution Unit (PDU) · HV AC and DC connectors integrated with harness sub-assemblies.
Builds: Box-Build + Harness · Certifications: AEC-Q100/Q200, IATF16949
Charger & Power-Electronics Integration
On-Board Charger (OBC) · 3 kW 3-wheeler EV charger · DC Fast Chargers · EVSE charging infrastructure with parallelized PFC top/bottom SMT and concurrent box-build.
Builds: PCBA + Box-Build · Certifications: AEC-Q, ARAI certified (3kW), IEC 61851
Hi-Pot Test per IEC 62368-1
Safety isolation verification across power-electronics box-builds · Audit-ready hi-pot records bound to serial · Workmanship per IPC-A-610 Class 2 or Class 3 depending on field-reliability requirements.
Builds: Box-Build · Certifications: IEC 62368-1, IPC-A-610 Class 3 where applicable
IN PRACTICE
On a 3 kW 3-wheeler EV charger program facing an ARAI certification window, Indic parallelized PFC top/bottom SMT and started box-build before all boards were complete — delivering a 4-day assembly cycle (vs. a legacy ~2-week cycle)and removing import dependency through localized component sourcing.
