Difficult-To-Source Components
Leaning in where others step back.
When critical components are hard to source, we excel in making the nearly impossible possible. Who we are and what we do allows us to step in where others step back.
Beyond a purveyor of specialty components and systems, Utron Kinetics is a strategic partner that mitigates the vulnerability in your supply chain when it comes to difficult-to-source components and assemblies. Our extensive, deep process development know-how and vertically integrated manufacturing capabilities – coupled to an extensive network of trusted suppliers – enables you to have the exact component you needs, to spec and on time.
From precision machining, thermal processing, specialty forgings and castings, to metal-impregnated substrates, press-and-sinter parts and spin-formed components, among others, we develop and control key processes – many of them in-house –providing our customers with reduced risk, an expanded supply base and the confidence of increasing production volumes in service of their markets.
Whether you need to bridge a supply chain gap, re-engineer a legacy part, or develop a fully integrated production solution around a critical component, we deliver the expertise, infrastructure and willingness to invest in making it happen—seamlessly and at scale.
