Design and Customisation

Bespoke Power Electronic Design Solutions - Power Supplies, EV charging, AC-DC, AC-AC, Frequency Converters
Customisation of our LF product range up to 6kV

Our off-the-shelf product solutions can be customised to meet different specifications; please provide as much information as possible to your individual requirements.

GBE Power offers a fully bespoke product design service, including highly experienced advice for all aspects of product compliance. We cover the entire design process. From initial product specification, into mechanical, electronic, firmware and software design, through to compliance testing, prototype, and full production engineering. Devices can be fully web-interfaced, with remote embedded system control and data logging. This software design service is proving increasingly popular for gathering data analytics and remote system control.
