The World's Best Transformers

How Do You Define the World's Best Transformers?

It's a bold claim, 'we make the world's finest power transformers.' We believe this to be true but how does one actually define it? Our definition is the sum of four different categories:

Reliability

While competitors may have adequate failure rates, mission-critical applications demand higher standards. Pacific Transformer developed a mature Quality Management System approved by government agencies and manufacturer inspectors. Our transformers power U.S. Military weapons systems, life-dependent medical devices, and NASA satellites. Every unit undergoes 100% electrical testing and 100% final inspection, standard on every order.

Speed

We prioritize rapid turnaround across all customer touchpoints, delivering custom designs and quotes in under 48 hours, prototypes in days and full production runs in no more than two weeks.

Flexibility

The line we are famous for is, 'it isn't impossible unless we told you it was.' Our engineers solve seemingly impossible design constraints.

We accommodate just-in-time production models with customized manufacturing and delivery intervals.

Multiple globally-positioned facilities enable rapid turnaround, cost optimization, and risk mitigation. We can design in California and manufacture in China, with backup locations preventing disruptions.

Affordability

Pacific Transformer leverages a combination of our facilities in the US, Mexico, China, and Thailand, our extensive engineering experience, and our vast buying power to provide reliable products at costs rivaling offshore production.

At the end of the day, when you add it all up, we think you'd be hard-pressed to find a better-built transformer but…we may be a bit biased.
