Why Engineers Choose Imagrove

1

Real Engineers, Not Salespeople

The team behind 200+ publicly available ESP32 tutorials. We speak PCB, firmware, and MQTT — so your requirements translate to hardware with zero distortion.

2

Self-Built Microfactory

We built our own desktop PCBA manufacturing platform — Embody. This eliminates the overhead of traditional EMS, cutting prototype costs by up to 90%.

3

中文 + English Support

Seamless bilingual communication across design, sourcing, and production. We bridge the gap between Western product ideas and Chinese manufacturing reality.

How It Works

Four steps from idea to shipped product.

Step 1

You Share Your Idea

Send us your schematic, BOM, or just a rough spec. We review within 24 hours.

Step 2

We Deliver a Quote

Transparent pricing: design fee + unit cost. No hidden charges.

Step 3

Prototype in 7 Days

PCB etching, SMT assembly, firmware testing — all in-house.

Step 4

Scale to Production

From 10 units to 10,000. We grow with you.

Industries We Serve

IoT & Smart Home
Sensors, gateways, edge nodes
Industrial Control
PLC alternatives, monitoring, HMI
Energy Management
Smart meters, solar controllers
Robotics & Drones
Motor control, telemetry, nav boards

Why Not Just Use a PCB Fab?

If you've ever tried to manufacture hardware, you know the pain points.

DIY / JLCPCB Traditional EMS Imagrove ODM

We've been on both sides. We know what breaks when you outsource hardware to someone who doesn't write firmware.

Frequently Asked Questions

I don't have a schematic — just an idea. Can you help?

Yes. That's exactly what ODM means. You describe the product and its requirements; we design the schematic, select components, and build the PCB from scratch.

What's the minimum order quantity?

None. We can produce a single prototype for validation. For production runs, we scale from 10 to 10,000 units. Our self-built microfactory makes low-volume manufacturing economically viable.

How do you protect my intellectual property?

We sign an NDA before any technical discussion begins. All design files, firmware, and BOMs remain your property. We can also structure the contract with explicit IP assignment clauses.

What if I need changes after the prototype?

Iteration is expected. Because we control the entire process in-house — from PCB etching to firmware — a design revision typically takes 1-3 days rather than weeks.

Do you handle firmware development too?

Yes. Our team writes ESP32 firmware (ESP-IDF, Arduino, MicroPython), MQTT integration, OTA update logic, and sensor drivers. We can deliver a fully functional device — not just a bare PCB.

Can you help with certifications (CE / FCC)?

We design for compliance from the start — proper grounding, EMI suppression, and component selection that meets certification requirements. We can also coordinate with certified labs for formal testing when needed.
