01
Custom RF Design
Active and passive RF components designed around your link budget, frequency plan and power constraints — from LNAs and filters to complete RF front ends.
- LNAs & filters
- RF front ends
- Link budget
Custom design
Engineered to your requirement
When a catalogue part doesn’t fit the band, the envelope or the platform, we design one that does.

Custom PCB Design
Single-layer to multi-layer boards with RF-aware stack-ups, controlled impedance, grounding and EMC practice suited to defence environments.
- Multi-layer
- Controlled impedance
- EMC
03
Custom Antenna Design
Antennas shaped to the frequency band, radiation pattern, size and weight your platform allows, including GNSS, telemetry and L/S-band designs.
- GNSS
- Telemetry
- L/S-band
04
Platform Integration
Mechanical and structural adaptation — housings, mounts and connector layouts — so the hardware fits your airframe, hull or vehicle without compromise.
- Housings
- Mounts
- Connectors
Process
From requirement to production
- 01
Requirements
Frequency, environment, interfaces, size, weight and quantity are captured with your engineers.
- 02
Design & simulation
RF, PCB and mechanical design are developed and verified in simulation.
- 03
Prototype
First units are built and measured against the agreed requirement set.
- 04
Qualification
Environmental and performance tests to the programme’s standard.
- 05
Production
Series production and long-term support from our Ankara facilities.
FAQ
Custom design questions
Short answers to what platform teams ask us most. Need detail on integration, band plans or interfaces? Ask an engineer directly.
Have another question?
Send it through the form on our contact page — an RF engineer will answer you directly.
Go to the contact form01What information do you need to start a custom antenna design?
Operating frequency band, required gain and pattern, polarisation, available installation space, weight limit, connector type and the environmental conditions. If some values are open, we help define them.
02Can you adapt an existing Sağlamtek product instead of starting from scratch?
Often yes. Connector pin-outs, housings and mounting are commonly adapted to the host platform — the SAJ GNSS Shield, for example, is mechanically adapted for each platform it is fitted to.
03Do you handle the PCB and mechanics too, or only the RF part?
All of it. RF components, multi-layer PCBs, antennas and the mechanical adaptation to your platform are designed by the same engineering team, so interfaces between them are solved early instead of at integration.
04What happens after I send a requirement?
An engineer reviews it and comes back with questions or a first recommendation. The work then follows five steps: requirements, design and simulation, prototype, qualification and series production.
05Do you sign NDAs before technical discussions?
Yes. Programme-sensitive details can be shared after a non-disclosure agreement is in place.
Start a project
Send us your requirement.
A short description of the band, platform and constraints is enough to start the conversation. NDA first if your programme requires it.
