Representatives from Christensen Industries will be attending Aviation Week MRO Americas and Military Conference and Exhibition in Phoenix, Arizona from April 20-22, 2010.

“The aerospace industries’ renewed focus on supply chain management has proven very positive for Christensen Industries. More and more companies are realizing the value of reliable suppliers that can deliver a high quality product on a short lead time, and still offer it at a competitive price relative to the competition. That is where we fit into the aerospace manufacturing market. We know what we can offer to the aerospace industry, and trade shows like Aviation Week’s MRO are excellent oportunities for companies to learn about what Christensen Industries has to offer them.”
-Craig Harrison, General Manager, Christensen Industries

CI has elected not to exhibit this year, but will have representatives present at the convention for the duration of the show. To schedule a meeting with Christensen Industries representatives please visit our contact page, here: http://www.christensenindustries.com/contact.php

Christensen Industries is an AS9100:2008 and Nadcap Accredited manufacturing firm that supplies the aerospace industry with sheet metal and fabricated components as well as a wide variety of machined products and certified special process work. CI also has a proprietary line of Arinc Trays, Chassis Assemblies and Custom Enclosures to fit virtually any need.

Christensen Industries has taken delivery of a new Zeiss Contura G2 coordinate measuring machine (CMM).

“The addition of the CMM to our quality department demonstrates our commitment to manufacturing the highest quality parts available to the aerospace industry. We are committed to the continual improvement of our quality system and being capable of ensuring that our customers receive products that meet that criteria.” -Ryan Christensen – Vice President of Christensen Industries

Along with the delivery of the new CMM machine, Christensen Industries has completely remodeled the QA offices and Quality Inspection area in its shop. A clean, secure, and temperature controlled environment for the new machine, along with better lighting and a cleaner environment for quality inspection as a whole will help to ensure that Christensen Industries continues to excel in delivering the highest quality products available in the industry.

Christensen Industries, who had been working as a third tier supplier on the Boeing C-17 project for several years, has delivered the first of 15 flight sets under a new PO to work directly for CAV Aerospace.

Christensen Industries’ Vice President of Operations, Rob Christensen, had this to say about it: “The Boeing C-17 program has been a great project for us for several years now. We are excited to be working directly for CAV Aerospace and also cultivating a stronger relationship with Boeing as a supplier on such an important aircraft.”

The change from third tier supplier to primary has brought other positive changes with it for Christensen Industries, who is now qualified as a direct supplier to Boeing.

“Our AS9100 and Nadcap certifications are allowing us to play a bigger role in the aerospace industry and are drawing a lot of very positive attention from the Nadcap Prime’s, like Boeing.” said Christensen Industries President Keith Christensen.

Christensen Industries is supplying complex metal components, used in the avionics bays, on the C-17 aircraft. These parts also include several of the new Christensen Industries line of Arinc Trays.

CI has developed and begun the patent process on a quick-release c-clamp device. The clamp’s purpose is to serve the medical industry with a mounting solution, far superior, to the products currently available in the industry.

“We found that there was a lack of quality mounting options available for the medical industry. With our expertise in developing complex mounting configurations to supply the aerospace and defense industries, this was an easy problem for us to solve.” -Rob Christensen- Vice President Marketing

Christensen Industries is currently negotiating the supply of their quick-release clamps to various medical companies. The designed product is intended for use in mounting configurations for IV pumps as well as other products and mounting brackets used in hospitals.

The United States Department of State has awarded Christensen Industries registration with the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR Part 122) for the manufacturing and exportation of defense articles.

“With ITAR registration we look forward to the opportunities it will provide CI in the future. This will allow us to better serve our overseas customers by providing our box mounts, arinc trays, and other custom products directly.” -Rob Christensen- Vice President Marketing

Christensen Industries has successfully passed its ISO 9001:2008 and AS9100 Rev B reaccreditation audit for its Quality Management System through the PRI Registrar.

“Our ongoing commitment to quality is the foundation for our business and our future success.”
