We metallize our own ceramics. We design and braze together ceramics/metal seal assemblies that have electronic and structural functions for use in severe environments. We have a machine shop and tool and die shop, complete with EDM capability. We change strip and bar stock into high precision parts for our various product lines. We take those metal and ceramic parts and make various Vacuum Electron Devices (VEDs) such as planar triodes, magnetrons and spark gaps. We make Microwave Circuit Modules using planar triode VED's and Solid State active devices.

MPD, Inc.�s roots go back to 1899 and Kentucky Electric. In 1922, Kentucky Radio (or Ken-Rad) was spun off to manufacture an entirely new product, electron tubes. At the end of World War II, General Electric (GE) purchased Ken-Rad and operated it until January 1987. During this time, this facility was part of GE�s Microwave Products Department (MPD). In the 1960s, GE's MPD employment reached over 6,000 people. In 1987, GE sold the business to a group of private investors and MPD, Inc. was formed. MPD Components, Inc. is the portion of MPD, Inc. that was MPD's business in 1987. In 1997, Gary Braswell, President & CEO, and his staff, arranged for MPD, Inc. to become an ESOP. As an ESOP, we have continued to prosper.
