Allied Sinterings

Allied Sinterings has specialized in medical components since the 1959's and continues today to fabricate parts for major medical device manufacturers. Additionally, the company provided Special Devices, Inc. with 50 million air bag components per year. As specialists in miniaturization and precision, Allied Sinterings works with Fortune 500 compan... ies and small OEM's in aerospace, aftermarket automotive, industrial and consumer goods, and medical device manufacture. Established in 1959 by Gifford Foster and Axel Madsen, Allied Sinterings began in a converted diner on Route 7 in Danbury, Connecticut with 4 employees, 4 compacting presses and a sintering furnace. Called the "dollhouse of the industry," the company quickly established itself as expert in small metal gears, assemblies and sub-assemblies. Recognizing the need for smaller parts to fit smaller spaces, Foster and Madsen initially focused on small powder metal gears. Polaroid found the tiny, precision P/M gears ideal for its popular line of affordable cameras and Allied Sinterings landed the account that helped to build its finances and international reputation.Read More
