TDI Expands in Dayton

At a time when many companies are scaling back, Tech Development (TDI), a Dayton, Ohio manufacturer of turbine air starters and aerospace machinery has just completed a 49,000 sq. ft building addition to expand its manufacturing capability. The 49,000 sq. ft addition doubles the manufacturing floor space for TDI. “The additional space allows us to improve efficiencies by creating cellularized work areas and an overall better work flow in the plant,” continued Rawlins. In 2008, when facility construction began, TDI was celebrating its 50-year anniversary. Over the last 12 months, the company has introduced nine new products and has plans for even more. “The completion of this building expansion is pivotal to TDI’s growth strategy,” said Rawlins.
