Anwendungen

Where our boards navigate,
propel and protect at sea

Marine electronics face salt, moisture, vibration and extreme temperatures 24/7. Every board must be built to last the life of the vessel.

01

ADAS & Radar Systems

High-frequency RF boards on Rogers laminates for 77 GHz forward collision, lane departure and autonomous driving sensor fusion.

02

EV Battery Management

Heavy copper BMS boards for cell monitoring, thermal management and charge control in hybrid and full-electric vehicles.

03

Engine & Powertrain Control

High-temperature multilayer boards for ECU and TCU operating near the engine bay from -40°C to +150°C.

04

Infotainment & Digital Cockpit

HDI multilayer boards for in-vehicle displays, connectivity, navigation and digital cluster platforms.

05

Chassis & Safety Systems

IPC Class 3 boards for ABS, ESP, airbag control and active suspension — zero tolerance for in-field failure.

06

Body Control Modules

Standard multilayer PCBs for door locks, window controls, lighting automation and central body electronics.

07

Automotive Lighting

Metal-core and aluminium PCBs for matrix LED headlights and adaptive lighting systems.

08

HVAC & Comfort Systems

Robust multilayer PCBs for climate control, seat adjustment and ambient environment management.

The Engineering Challenge

Why marine electronics PCBs
require specialist protection

The marine environment is one of the most destructive on earth for electronics. Salt spray, high humidity, vibration and biofouling attack unprotected PCBs within weeks.

01

Salt Fog Corrosion & High Humidity

IEC 60945 requires PCBs to withstand 96-hour salt fog exposure and continuous 95% relative humidity. Standard surface finishes and solder masks corrode rapidly in these conditions. ENIG, ENEPIG and heavy conformal coating are mandatory for marine service life.

IEC 60945 · salt fog 96h · 95% RH · ENIG / heavy coat
02

Vibration, Shock & Long Service Life

Vessel machinery spaces experience continuous vibration at 5–200 Hz and shock loads during heavy weather. Marine electronics must operate for 20–30 years without board-level failure — PCB material selection, via reliability and solder joint quality are all critical.

03

Regulatory Compliance — DNV, Lloyd's, Bureau Veritas

Commercial vessels must carry electronics type-approved by DNV GL, Lloyd's Register or Bureau Veritas. This requires documented manufacturing processes, material traceability and testing records that most standard PCB suppliers cannot provide.

Warum HanSphere

Why Tier-1 suppliers
choose us.

Automotive procurement teams need more than a PCB factory — they need a certified partner with documented processes, fast engineering response and the depth to solve problems before the production line.

IEC
60945 marine standard

Marine environment expertise, not just PCB fabrication

We understand IEC 60945, DNV GL and Lloyd's documentation requirements. Our process records, material traceability and test data are structured to support classification society type approval — reducing your certification timeline.

IPC 3
High-reliability build

Class 3 for boards that must last the life of the vessel

Marine electronics serve 20–30 year vessel lifetimes. IPC Class 3 build standards, microsection analysis and corrosion-resistant surface finishes are our baseline for all marine orders.

ENIG
Corrosion-resistant finish

Gold finish on every marine board — standard, not optional

ENIG and ENEPIG are our standard finishes for marine boards. Salt fog-resistant gold plating is not an upcharge — it is the correct specification for the environment your board will operate in.
