50+ years of success

Founded in 1973

Prime Technology is a privately owned company, first founded in 1973 in Mt. Vernon, New York. Since 1982, we have been located on twelve acres in North Branford, Connecticut in a 36,000 square foot facility. We also have a 20,000 square foot facility in the Dominican Republic for commercial manufacturing that has been operating since 1986. As we celebrate 50+ years of past success and history, we renew our commitments to our customers, and we take pride in our solid position for growth, brought about by a solid foundation.

A History of Measurement

Prime Technology’s mission is to design and manufacture instruments and electronic systems through innovative engineering in order to surpass its customer’s needs and expectations. These are the principles that have guided the company’s growth from manufacturing wirewound resistors, resistor instruments, and measurement and indication equipment into integrated systems with broad applications. There are six divisions under the Prime Technology umbrella, each sharing the company’s vision.

We provide our customer base a resource that designs, develops and manufactures electronic systems to their individual requirements. We are uniquely able to provide this at an exceptional value by calling on our past technological successes to use as building blocks for future projects. Through the use of this existing technology, combined with our growing expertise in dealing with system-based projects, we can offer solutions at a reduced cost, faster schedule and with less risk.

We have a variety of extraordinary capabilities supporting our efforts to further expand into the electronic systems market. We have developed an outstanding engineering department with a considerable 3-D modeling and design capability. We have developed a vertical manufacturing operation, with the ability to perform a variety of manufacturing processes such as automated surface mount pick and place, through hole assembly, wire bonding, mechanical assembly, metal fabrication, secondary machining, painting, and marking. We adhere to a rigorous Quality Program that conforms to the Nuclear Power Issues Committee (NUPIC) 10CFR50 Appendix B and 10CFR21. We also conform to MIL-I-45208 for inspection and MIL-STD-45662A for calibration.
