InSource Thru The Years
Something out of Nothing
Family Business opens in a 2,500 sq. ft. facility. Builds 1 product (Refrigerant Identifier) and provides contract engineering services for 1 customer while employing 10.
New Addition, New Products
Added 9,000 sq. ft. manufacturing space and 4 new products went into production after engineering re-design.
Wiring Harnesses, Software Engineering, Electronic Instruments
Builds Wire Harness Assemblies for our 1st Wire Harness Customer. Engineering adds Embedded C Software Capabilities. Start production of Electronic Instruments such as Leak Detectors and Vacuum Gauges.
Box Build Electronics
Begins assembly of electronic products that controls light/siren function in the specialty vehicle market. Vertical integration into PCB assembly reduces overall lead time.
Chassis Harnesses
Begins supplying custom cable and wire harness assemblies to a local ambulance manufacturer. Later “added value” is provided by kitting harness packages for specific trucks to aid in customer efficiency.
Copper Tube Fabrication
Begins to supply copper tubes and brazed assemblies to the refrigeration/specialty tools industry. Our pattern has been to embrace adding capabilities to meet the needs of OEM’s. This complimented our Refrigerant hose assembly line.
Hardware Engineering
Adds In-House Schematic Creation and Board Layout. Over the years we have seen value in investing in our Engineering capabilities.
Product Launch
Embedded Design Engineering is provided to develop Electronics for Field GPS unit to customer in agricultural market. Product Launch a major success and InSource begins production. Our specialty and experience is Design to Build.
Wire Harness Technology
Automatic termination added to wire processing machines. Laser Etching of Connectors and Braided Looming of Harnesses. Investment in Technology increases design options and consistency!
SMT Board Production
Investment made to SMT Circuit Board Capabilities to better control lead time. Production Capacity increases while product defects are decreased.
Plastic Injection Molding
Capabilities are added for Injection Molding. Improvement in reliability and waterproofing of connectors.
Programmable Logic
Added robotic thru-hole soldering. CNC small copper tube bender.
Condensing Units
Standard and custom condensing units are built for reliability, utilizing market leading compressors and coils.
3rd Business Unit, Upgrade Inspection Equipment
Launched Wire Harness business unit and added SPI to SMT line.
Enhance Business Systems
Production facility at 60,000 sq. ft. with 125 employees. Received ISO9001:2008 certification in December. Founder and President retires.
Leadership Change
New President/CEO begins. Better Planning Systems initiative launched. Employment reaches 200.
Building for the Future
Begin construction of another 12,000 sq. ft. of Production. Expanding into current markets. SEDEX registration, ISO9001:2015 certification. Launched QRM in Harness business unit. 3rd SMT line in Electronics.
Industry Associations
Joined NTEA (Work Truck Industry) and NRA (National Restaurant Association) to support key industries that we serve.
Challenges Continue
Strong demand and component delays create a real capacity crunch. New buildings add 14,400 sqft. Inflationary pressures drive us to frequently requote pricing to customers.
Organizational change, 25th anniversary open house, electronic and refrigeration component shortages
President/CEO split into 2 roles, and 2 new BU Directors are named. InSource celebrates 25 years in business with an open house. Refrigeration and Controls struggle with long component lead times and high demand.
