KLINGER IGI

KLINGER IGI is a precision material converter and parts maker. Its factory and head office are in Wilsonville, Oregon, a few miles south of Portland. The website calls it the expert precision material converter of the KLINGER brand for the United States.

The company serves original equipment makers and Tier 1 manufacturers in regulated fields. These include aerospace, electronics, scientific and medical devices, energy, marine and automotive. It says its custom cut parts are installed in commercial and defense aircraft and ships, as well as in computers, power plants and chemical plants. The facility is AS 9100D, ISO 9001:2015 and ITAR registered.

Customers design the parts, and the company builds them to print. It cuts materials with CNC waterjets, lasers and flash cutters, and with high speed die cutting presses. It also runs routers and slitters. Its products include custom gaskets, thermal interface pads, EMI and RFI shields, and industrial gaskets and seals.

The company calls itself material agnostic. With the customer's approval, it can source and cut qualified materials from several makers, with an eye on performance, delivery time and price. Its sales and application engineers help with material choice and fabrication methods. They also work with new product teams on prototypes, so the company can later take over production volumes.

A blog post on the site explains why gaskets and seals for aerospace, defense and electronics need qualified suppliers. The same post says the team would be at Booth 24 of the I-90 Aerospace Corridor Conference in Coeur d'Alene on May 26 and 27. The phone number is 800-444-7157.
