Welcome!
Thorndike Corporation is a
leading design and precision manufacturer of microwave
absorbing dielectrics supplying the military, commercial
and industrial fields with over 60 years of continuous
service.
We manufacture our own line of high loss absorbers
to fit hundreds of old requirements and customize parts
for new designs. Our current formulas include the exact
equivalents to the old standard materials used in microwave
applications over the past 40 years. Our materials are
used in many components such as terminations, attenuators,
mode suppressors, EMI suppressors, filters, couplers,
and virtually anywhere microwave frequency suppression
is desired.
At Thorndike we mold, machine, die cut and grind raw
stock materials into precise engineering prototypes
or full production runs. Our machine shop includes C.N.C.
lathes, C.N.C. millers, lathes, millers, surface grinding,
blanchard grinding, ID and OD grinding and grinders
capable of machining all types of dielectrics, plastics,
and silicon carbide. We also can centerless grind rod
stock to almost any length and diameter. Our machine
shop manufactures to print, finished components using
either our own materials or yours.
We manufacture based on the customer's needs - from
a one-piece sample prototype and finished product to
a production run exceeding one million pieces.
For new designs, prototypes, or engineering upgrades,
we provide the electrical and mechanical design for
many types of microwave products, from system specifications.
Our engineering department works with your designers
to integrate the right material into your components.
We provide the optimum shapes, materials and design
for high power applications, low cost, special frequency
and wide band applications. Our products are designed
into coaxial, waveguide, strip and coplanar waveguide
applications. Contact
our technical support department for particular
requirements.
