This vertically integrated production facility is ISO 9001-compliant and capable of a wide variety of production processes and assemblies.
Fixtures and equipment may be re-arranged quickly to accommodate programs of any magnitude, and overall area layouts can be changed overnight due to an open space plan designed within the production area. Several discrete areas are set aside to perform specialized functions.
Separate potting and vacuum filling areas eliminate the chance of contamination. Five batch-type ovens cure assemblies, while a dispatch-type walk-in oven is used to cure large assemblies.
A McLean Andeson Model W-1 filament winding machine performs the epoxy-impregnated fiberglass winding of transducer ceramics. The McLean Andeson is one of the most advanced winding systems currently available and is capable of both wet or dry glass-wrapping applications.
