OUR HISTORY
OK International Inc., traces its roots back to 1946 when it specialized in precision machining of metal parts primarily for the defense industry. By the 1970s, OK's focus had evolved to the manufacturing and distribution of wire wrapping products, used in the production and installation of telephone switching systems. Using telecommunications as a base, OK extended the marketing and distribution of this adhesion or attachment process to other electronics markets. Then, in 1989, OK International made a strategic decision to refocus on developing, manufacturing and marketing its own proprietary products, primarily in the circuit board solder/desolder business.
In alignment with that strategy, OK acquired Metcal and Techcon Systems in 1996. These acquisitions, along with becoming part of Dover Corporation in November 2000, served to strengthen the OK's core competencies in the manufacturing and development of soldering systems as well as dispensing and fume filtration products. This also helped in the expansion of its customer base, markets, and geographic presence. In addition, these acquisitions provided OK International with patented technologies and products that broadened its product line.
