Industrial Automation, Inc.

Avtron’s Business Management System is certified to ISO 9001 the International Standard for Quality Management Systems. The scope of our certification includes the design, development, and manufacture of: Resistive & Reactive Load Banks, Industrial Resistors; Aircraft electrical and fuel component test systems, Hydraulic test equipment; Digital control systems, Motor test equipment, and Digital instrumentation systems.

Since its inception in 1953, Avtron’s foundation has been firmly rooted in its commitment to quality. Avtron originally achieved certification to ISO 9000 in 1996 and since that time we have expanded the scope of our system while successfully maintaining our certification. Our comprehensive Business Management System incorporates or exceeds all imposed requirements and provides guidance and direction for Avtron employees in support of our organizational commitment to quality, customer satisfaction, and continual improvement. Lean initiatives on the manufacturing floor and within the office environment have been integrated into our culture resulting in both value and assured quality for our customers.

• Incremental Encoders for measuring speed and position in industrial control systems. Users include heavy industry, the wind turbine industry, and offshore oil platforms. Avtron was recently awarded $1,000,000 by the Ohio Third Frontier program to extend this technology further into wind turbines.
• Drive Systems. Avtron specializes in retrofitting modern digital controls onto large machines in the Steel, Paper, Mining, Marine Propulsion, and Crane Industries.
• Load Banks for testing and commissioning emergency standby generators uninterruptible power supplies, and data centers.
• Aerospace Test Equipment. These are complex computer coordinated systems for testing electrical and hydraulic components and systems. Avtron systems are installed all over the world.

It is not uncommon for engineers to be promoted and transferred to projects involving other product areas, and Avtron's engineering management attempts to ensure a high degree of synergy. For example, many reasons why Avtron's digital drive systems are reliable can be traced to money spent by both the government and aircraft manufacturers to determine how to make flying electronics reliable.

Avtron has approximately 30 degreed field service engineers. On major systems, the same service engineers who will start-up the system in the field are charged with final testing at Avtron, developing a unique degree of familiarity.

Since Avtron systems, whether aircraft test systems or drive control systems, often involve high-tech components installed at remote customer sites, where customer maintenance personnel may not be as familiar with the equipment as Avtron personnel, Avtron has developed methods to improve reliability and ease of maintenance. In general, the most complex Avtron system can be maintained on an emergency basis by an electrician with a telephone.
