Twinsburg OH: Cleveland Electric Laboratories (CEL), the 88-year-old innovator in thermocouples and temperature sensing solutions, based in Twinsburg Ohio, continues to grow in Ohio. The latest Ohio move is a new products test lab located on Enterprise Parkway in Twinsburg. The company opened in Phoenix with six employees in 2005. Today, CEL's Test Cell Instrumentation (TCI) Research & Development Facility employs twenty-six including its engineering, production and office staff in Tempe and Phoenix. The Arizona businesses serve the company's growing number of customers engaged in turbine engine testing and turbine engine ground support equipment tooling.

"Cleveland Electric Labs is a leading developer and supplier of high temperature thermocouples, assemblies and process control solutions to national and international aerospace and automotive parts manufacturing companies," Rodger Shepherd facility director reported. "Our growth required us to find a better means to serve our western states' customers. We soon discovered that persons with the required skills were difficult to locate. Fortunately, we found highly qualified instrumentation engineers, skilled designers and fabricators in greater Phoenix. This talented group enabled us to establish a second engineering center and production facility in Tempe" Shepherd continued.

TCI research and development engineers supply solutions to enhance turbine engine performance, reduce aircraft weight and space requirements through the company's instrumentation, engineering, design and production capabilities.

"Our experienced Tempe test cell solutions engineering and production team designs, and fabricates thermocouples and other products used to monitor heat, vibration and pressure " Shepherd went on to say. "We are enjoying advantageous technology transfers between our Ohio and Arizona engineers in exciting new areas. Fiber optic sensing is one market in which we believe CEL-TCI is the leading innovator among competing test cell instrumentation developers."

Since 1920 Cleveland Electric Labs has developed numerous, innovative high temperature and process control sensing solutions. On-site engineering assessment plus high efficiency and quality production processes have enabled CEL to meet the application, immediate installation and cost containment requirements of world-wide aerospace, automotive, glass, metals, and turbine engine customers.

Phoenix AZ. Cleveland Electric Labs announced today that Clay Clark has joined the growing team of Cleveland Electric Labs Test Cell Instrumentation Research & Development Facility, and Cleveland Electric Labs Machining Services Center.

Clark will lead CEL-TCI ground support equipment tooling sales to the turbine APU and fan engine market. CEL-TCI manufacturing engineers and machinists design or build from prints maintenance, repair and turbine engine overhaul tools for service centers and turbine manufacturer test cells.

Clay Clark has a manufacturing engineering degree from SME in Dearborn Michigan, is a licensed machinist and most recently was responsible for all customer marketing, tool design and production parts solutions at Marsh Aviation.

Cleveland Electric Labs Test Cell Instrumentation R&D Facility in Tempe AZ and Cleveland’s Machining Services Center in Phoenix are units of Twinsburg Ohio based Cleveland Electric Laboratories. In 2005 TCI opened in Phoenix to serve the turbine test cell instrumentation, engineering, design, manufacturing, fabrication and repair requirements and the ground service equipment tool needs of domestic and international companies that test, maintain, repair, overhaul and operate turbine engines.
