Successful Stories

2020 IP69X Inductive Position Sensor

APEX launched an inductive position sensor to address emerging demand of vehicle and industrial application for precision position sensor. It provides features of IP69X waterproof, 10 million long life cycles, 1% linearity, and dual output features.

2020 Accelerator Position Sensor

A leading vehicle manufacturer needs to integrate acceleration function into motorcycle handlebar switch. APEX developed slim accelerator position sensor powered by automotive inductive IC to meet the requirement. The sensor is dual output to meet ride-by-wire.

2019 Ultra-miniature Pogo-pin Connector

A smart device customer needs a very compact pogo-pin connector, while no one could supply. APEX worked with supplier to develop a world most compact 10-pin pogo connector with 3A rated current to meet customer requirement in 2-month.

2019 Simplified Rotary SW

A customer demands a switch that could bear violent operation as well as low-cost. APEX worked with customer to launch a simplified rotary SW to meet the request.

2018 Switch Module

A leading vehicle manufacturer desires switch module with CANBUS output to simplify wires, minimize power rating, and achieve two-way communication. APEX uses its profession in terms of IC firmware as well as electro-mechanical design to achieve this innovation.

2018 Acceleration Control Module

A leading vehicle manufacturer desires a compact, while reliable & low-cost module for acceleration. APEX uses its profession in terms of position sensing as well as mechanical design to launch a custom solution.

2017 Piezo switch

A Nordic customer advised difficulty to actuate metal pushbutton SW under very low temperature. They demanded something that could be actuated under all temperature.

APEX therefore adopted piezo technology which doesn’t apply mechanism for actuation, but only request slight pressure to satisfy such demand.

2015: 10X10 mm rotary coded switch

A leading industrial customer uses very high volume of rotary coded switch, but cost down is not possible from current supplier. APEX came out a drop-in replacement in couple months with better performance in terms of haptic detent feel and rotational life.

Customer was satisfied and adopted APEX switches from new projects.

2013: Intrusion Switch for Server

A leading server customer came to APEX to request a robust intrusion switch with long travel as such a switch is not available in the market.

APEX came out a custom product design in 4-week, submitted samples in 8-week, and entered mass production in 12-week. Customer awarded 100% allocation to APEX thanks to our quick and profession response.

2012: Illuminated Power Switch for Server

A leading server customer came to APEX to request a robust switch to resist more impact strength during assembly as current supplier refused to improve it and asked customer to improve their assembly process.

APEX came out a shield as quick solution, and then develop a custom product with thicker plastic and metal mounting plate as long-term solution. Such design now becomes industrial standard for servers.
