The Year Was 1960…

Posted on June 8, 2021 by gri@dmin

And Ray Green, a young engineer with an avid interest in crystal oscillators, would shortly make a decision that would change his life forever.

Green had worked on quartz crystals and quartz crystal oscillator design at two Pennsylvania-based companies, Hunt Corp. in Carlisle and Hill Electronics in Mechanicsburg. Green’s knowledge of oscillator design, coupled with a keen entrepreneurial spirit and a vision of what could be, led to his decision to start his own business. Green’s first order was for 100 R-C oscillators – built right in the basement of his house.

Contemplating a name for his growing enterprise, Ray turned his first and last names around and, in 1961, “Greenray Industries” was officially up and running. Having outgrown the basement production area, the company relocated to a building in Mechanicsburg, PA on Simpson Road. This would come to be affectionately referred to as the “chicken coop” – but it was a place to start.

In a few short years, continued growth prompted a move to a larger building at 1106 East Simpson Road. And in 1966, with the support of financial partners, the company obtained a plot on West Church Road and a new building was constructed. That building is still used by the company today.

New markets, changing customer needs and design and manufacturing innovation have all combined to shape Greenray Industries’ focus and growth as a company over the years. But one thing remains the same – we’re still producing crystal oscillators. Even though they might look a little different than they did in 1961.

Home Is Where the Suitcase Is (NOT!)

Posted on November 16, 2016 by gri@dmin

GRI on the road

International trade shows – the glamour, the excitement, the fine dining and nightlife! London, Baltimore, Munich! We’ll give you all that – but it sure is good to be home again.

A busy Fall show schedule kicked off in London this October with European Microwave Week, Europe’s leading microwave conference. Record attendance (over 4900, total) and fair weather combined for a most successful event. “Microwaves Everywhere” proved a fitting theme, with microwave technology workshops, technical papers, roundtables and exhibitors reflecting the depth and breadth of today’s microwave industry.

November 1st found us in Baltimore, Maryland for MILCOM 2016 and the 35th anniversary of this international conference for military communications. Attended by leaders in industry, government and academia, MILCOM uniquely focuses on the challenges of command, control and communication in a rapidly changing cyber world.

With just enough time to repack the suitcase we were off to Electronica 2016 and the beautiful city of Munich, Germany – along with the 72,999 other attendees and 2,900+ companies from around the world. For 2016, the largest electronics trade fair in the world adopted the motto “Connected Worlds – Safe and Secure.” As a designer and manufacturer of products for mission-critical apps for business and industry, we appreciated that – and so did attendees, 99% of whom gave the fair a good to excellent rating. A great industry event that just keeps getting better – we’ll see you in 2018!

To everyone that stopped by to visit Greenray on the road – thank you. We appreciate your interest and hope to see you again soon. And be sure to check back right here for our 2017 calendar of events – it’s sooner than you think!
