Commercial lighting manufacturing

Star Precision has the sheet metal fabrication, finishing, PCB assembly and electro-mechanical build to produce light housings, driver and power-supply enclosures, brackets and the assemblies that bring them together, all under one ISO 9001 roof in Houston.

Overview

Housings, drivers and finished fixtures

Commercial lighting is metal and electronics in one product. Star Precision makes the housing, assembles the boards and brings them together as a finished, tested fixture.

We have the in-house capability to fabricate luminaire housings, driver and power-supply enclosures, mounting brackets and trim, assemble the LED and driver boards, protect them with conformal coating, wire the harnesses and build the finished unit. Keeping the metalwork, the electronics and the assembly in one Houston shop removes the handoffs between a sheet metal supplier and a separate electronics house.

Company FAQs

Frequently asked questions

What does Star Precision manufacture?

We are a turnkey contract manufacturer. That means metal fabrication and tube laser cutting, precision CNC machining and Wire EDM, and full electronics manufacturing (PCB assembly, electro-mechanical box build, and cable and wire harness assembly), plus design-for-manufacturability and manufacturing support, all in-house since 1992.

What makes Star Precision a one-stop shop?

Because fabrication, machining and electronics assembly all happen under one roof, we can take a project from raw material and bare board through to a finished, tested and packaged product without handing it off between outside vendors. You get one supplier, one point of contact and one team accountable for the whole build.

Where are you located?

Northwest Houston, Texas, in two facilities. Our Brystone Drive plant (5410 Brystone Drive) houses metal fabrication, and Brittmoore Park Drive (11236 Brittmoore Park Drive) runs machining, electronics and assembly. Both are in Houston, TX 77041.

Are you ISO certified?

Yes. Star Precision is ISO 9001 certified. Our electronics processes are IPC-A-610, IPC/WHMA-A-620 and J-STD-001 certified, with an ESD-safe department, and we use CMM and laser quality inspection for dimensional accuracy.

What materials do you work with?

For fabrication and machining we work in mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper and brass, plus a wide range of electronic components for PCB and electro-mechanical assembly. If you are unsure what suits your part, our team can advise during a design review.

What are your fabrication and machining capabilities?

Sheet metal laser cutting up to 60 x 120 in and up to 1.00 in steel, NC punching and forming on a 220-ton, 14 ft brake, and fiber tube laser cutting of tube up to 30 ft raw and parts up to 236 in. On the machining side we run 5-axis milling, multi-axis turning and Wire EDM, verified by automated CMM inspection.

What electronics assembly do you offer?

SMT, through-hole and mixed-technology PCB assembly, single and double sided, managed by MES software and verified with SPI, AOI, X-ray and functional testing, with conformal coating and potting available. We also build cable and wire harness assemblies and integrate everything into complete electro-mechanical box builds.

Do you handle both prototypes and production?

Yes. We support the full lifecycle, from design-for-manufacturability and prototypes through first article inspection to low and high volume production, so the same partner that helps refine your design can also scale it.

Which industries do you serve?

We build for oil, gas and energy, aerospace and space, defense and military, medical and scientific instruments, electronics, data and telecom, industrial and OEM equipment, architectural metals, food equipment, solar and alternative energy, robotics, automotive, consumer electronics, security and surveillance, agriculture, HVAC and building automation, retail and point of sale, and marine, among others.

What commercial lighting products do you build?

Light fixture housings, driver and power-supply enclosures, mounting brackets and trim, plus assemblies that combine the metalwork with the electronics, using our existing fabrication and electronics capability.

Can you assemble the driver and LED boards?

Yes. We provide SMT, THT and mixed-technology PCB assembly with IPC-A-610 certified inspectors, plus conformal coating for moisture and dust protection.

Do you finish the housings?

Yes. We laser cut and form housings, then coordinate powder coat, plating and paint for a durable finished appearance.

Can you deliver a complete lit assembly?

Yes. Our electro-mechanical assembly team integrates boards, wiring and hardware into the housing and tests the finished unit.

What volumes do you support?

From prototypes and low-volume runs to high-volume production, using automated laser cutting and MES-managed electronics lines.
