Alliance Manufacturing of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, has acquired Technical Devices Co. (TDC), based in Torrance, California. TDC has continued to maintain the values established by their founders back in 1952. Its high-quality standards, excellent employee relationships and close partnerships with its customers have made TDC an ideal fit for the culture and direction of Alliance Manufacturing Inc.

The company has thrived under the direction of Douglas Winther for the past 40 years. He started with the company in 1963 and worked his way up from machine shop trainee/assembler all the way up to president/owner. Winther has built a team that provides excellent equipment and services to a diverse customer base in the electronics manufacturing industry.

Alliance will continue to expand upon the legacy that has been built by the TDC team. Through this acquisition, Alliance Manufacturing will be bringing over the TDC staff to its local facilities, which will add approximately 200 years of combined cleaning expertise to its already extensive knowledge base.

Alliance Manufacturing is a provider of industrial parts cleaning systems across a range of industries. Its core cleaning products include both aqueous and solvent-based cleaning systems. With the addition of TDC, Alliance will now have expertise related to electronic component cleaning, printed circuit board cleaning and deionized water recycling systems. Alliance’s engineering team will continue to expand upon Alliance’s and TDC’s patented technologies.
