Welcome everyone and thank you for joining us today for this Q&A session with Ken Marino, President at Orbel and HITEK’s Operations Director, Roger Dent. Ken brings a wealth of experience to the table, having been with Orbel for a 41 of  years. Today, we’ll be learning more about Orbel’s history, capabilities and how they can help customers with mission-critical challenges. So, without further ado, let’s get started!

Ken, it’s a pleasure to chat with you today. Orbel’s story is quite interesting. Perhaps you could share how the company came to be?

Sure Roger, Orbel was founded in 1961, where we initially started as a reel-to-reel electroplating company to help support and service the ever-growing electronics industry. Orbel are now a major supplier for electronic companies seeking high performance and precision engineered components. We’re proud that Orbel has combined expertise in technology, advanced manufacturing skills and quality control housed in a modern 57,000 sq. ft to facility in Easton Pennsylvania.

Which markets do Orbel serve Ken?

While Orbel serves the broader industrial and general electronics markets, our true passion lies in precision light-gauge metal components. We specialise in meeting the demanding needs of the Hi-Reliability, Military/Aerospace, and Automotive industries. Our goal is to empower our customers with the confidence to conquer any mission-critical challenge.

What about Orbel’s capabilities; what can HITEK’s customers draw upon?

The first question Orbel always asks when approaching a project is, “How can we take a vision and turn it into a repeatable, manufacturable reality? 

AS9100 design-certified, Orbel is a light-gauge, tight-tolerance specialist backed by an engineering team with a long history of excellence. We keep design manufacturing and design engineering under one roof, from print development to full production. At Orbel, we take pride in our robust design and quality control processes for all our services, including heat treating, forming, plating, stamping, and etching. This ensures that HITEK’s customers receive precision-engineered components that consistently meet the highest standards of performance and reliability, crucial for success in demanding applications.
