Your Trusted Electronics Manufacturing Partner in Lockeport
Founded in 1973, Allendale Electronics has evolved from a marine electronics sales and service business into a trusted provider of high-reliability electronic assemblies. Our journey began in Allendale before relocating to Lockeport, Nova Scotia, where we expanded operations through strategic acquisitions and technological advancements. With over 50 years of combined experience in surface mount and through-hole assembly, our team delivers precision-engineered solutions tailored to demanding industry standards. We prioritize continuous process improvement through structured planning, collaborative teamwork, and transparent communication.Our commitment to quality is reinforced by IPC certifications, in-house training programs, and state-of-the-art equipment like the MyData MY500 Jet printer and GlenBrook RTX-113 X-Ray system. As a relationship-driven organization, we specialize in solving complex circuit board challenges while maintaining strict adherence to ESD prevention protocols. Our capabilities span mixed-technology PCBs, cable assemblies, and sub-assemblies, supported by automated optical inspection and defluxing systems. Headquartered in Lockeport, we serve clients across Atlantic Canada with on-time delivery of mission-critical electronic components.

Services
Surface Mount Assembly
Our surface mount technology utilizes the MyData MY500 Jet printer for precise solder paste application without stencils. This advanced system handles 0.5mm pitch components and allows real-time program adjustments, reducing production time by eliminating traditional stencil requirements while maintaining high accuracy for components down to 0.4mm pitch.
Through-Hole Assembly
Our team with over 40 combined years of experience specializes in through-hole PCB assembly. Certified to IPC 610 E and J-STD-001 standards, we produce high-reliability printed wiring boards using manual and automated processes while maintaining strict quality control through in-house training and certification programs.
Cable Harness Production
We manufacture custom cable harnesses and sub-assemblies using specialized equipment like the CoaxStrip5300 and EcoStrip 9300. Our IPC/WHMA-A-620 certified technicians handle coax cables, transformers, and inductors from prototype to volume production with testing capabilities for quantities ranging from one to thousands.
Quality Testing
Our quality assurance department employs automated optical inspection (AOI), GlenBrook RTX-113 X-Ray systems, and Trident defluxing technology. We perform solder joint analysis on non-visible components and maintain IPC-certified processes for flux removal across all assembly types including rosin, water-soluble, and no-clean fluxes.
Mixed Technology PCBs
We combine surface mount and through-hole technologies in a single facility to produce mixed-technology PCBs. This integrated approach reduces costs for customers requiring both assembly methods while maintaining high reliability through unified quality control processes and IPC-certified production standards.
