Thordarson Meissner
CELEBRATING 120 YEARS OF GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY
After working tirelessly, experimenting with combinations of steel and copper, applying his knowledge of mathematics, Thordarson produced a device to control electrical force, making this source of energy adaptable for America’s growing industrialization. He called his device a “transformer”.
In 1895, Chester H. Thordarson founded Thordarson Electric Manufacturing Company in Chicago, Illinois, becoming the first producer of industrial and commercial transformers. Thordarson's commitment to manufacturing quality transformers, chokes and other magnetic components continues today. Thordarson? is proud of the reputation it has earned by meeting the ever-changing needs of the OEM. Serving the industry for over a century with a wide range of “innovative” and “quality” products from catalog off-the-shelf items to custom designs, Thordarson? is commited to the goal of being recognized as your World Class Supplier. In its early years, Thordarson? patented more than 30 inventions for transformer design and manufacturing, including the still most popular form of laminations, the scrapless “E and I”.
