HSI Sensing Expands Product Customization Efforts

Press Release:
  May 22, 2013 — Chickasha, OK — Well-known for their unique ability to manufacture custom reed switches and sensors for unique applications, HSI Sensing (Hermetic Switch, Inc.) has expanded their vast customization capabilities to include custom wires and cables, tape-and-reel packaging, electro-plating, printing and engraving, and more. These services make the sensors ready to assemble into virtually any device.

“Some customers need a switch to conform to a certain environment, some need it to conform to a certain footprint,” says Kristi Bridgers, product development facilitator for HSI Sensing. “No matter what their specifications, we can make it happen.”

According to HSI, sometimes just a simple modification--such as cutting the reed switch leads by a few millimeters or bending them at a certain angle--can save thousands of dollars in assembly costs for customers.

“Every design project is unique,” says David Posey, HSI president and lead engineer. “We’ve built our business around accommodating those little modifications that make all the difference toward getting a customer’s project off the ground.”

Some of HSI’s assembly-ready modifications include:

• bending -- custom-bending reed switch leads to fit a device and maintain peak performance
• wire and cable prep -- providing a variety of standard and specialty lengths, gauges, and colors
• cutting -- cutting reed switch leads to any size, without sacrificing performance
• welding -- ultrasonic welding to press housings and lids or weld surface-mount bars and tabs
