LumaSmart

What LumaSmart does

LumaSmart is a Shelby Township, Michigan-based contract manufacturer specializing in custom electronic circuit boards, LED light engines, and surface mount technology (SMT) assemblies, operating as both a custom design house and a turnkey EMS provider. According to the company website, it has operated as a custom design house and contract manufacturer since 2007 (with one firmographic source listing a 2002 origin) and serves OEM customers across automotive, industrial, commercial, horticultural, architectural, and transportation verticals, with concentrated relationships in the LED lighting segment.

Its technical stack centers on high-speed SMT lines capable of assembling up to 48" PCBs across FR4, MCB, CEM3, and flexible substrates, supported by robotic selective conformal coating, 3D Automated Optical Inspection (AOI), Solder Paste Inspection (SPI), X-Ray inspection, integrated-sphere photometric testing via GL Optic Spectrosoft, environmental chamber testing, and full box-build with PPAP/UL/ISO compliance. Production capacity reaches 80 million placements per month from a 40,000-square-foot facility opened in 2022 that enabled a 50% increase in assembly output. The company holds ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 certifications, qualifying it as a supplier for regulated automotive and industrial customers.

LumaSmart generates revenue primarily through project-based B2B hardware sales (custom boards, LED light engines, cable/harness, flex/rigid-flex assemblies, box builds) supplemented by professional design and engineering services. Pricing is quote-based with no minimum quantity requirement, supporting both rapid prototype runs (2-4 week turnaround) and production volumes (6-8 weeks). Distribution is direct to enterprise OEMs with no disclosed channel partners, and the website's 'Request a Free Quote' form is the primary inbound mechanism. Named enterprise customers include Original Cast Lighting and Saylite (both in the lighting OEM segment).
