Transline Technology has a long and rich tradition of Printed Circuit Board manufacturing and Metal Etching. We manufacture rigid, rigid-flex, and flex circuits. We also do photo etching and chemical milling on a variety of metals. TTI specializes in RF and Microwave PCB applications.

Our History

Transline Technology is currently owned and operated by Larry Padmani and Chris Savalia. Both men were born and raised abroad and grew up in the same community. They immigrated to the US to attend graduate school and pursue the American Dream.

Since both hold advanced degrees in engineering, the printed circuit board industry was a natural fit for them. For several years, each followed their own career paths and each eventually ran their own respective EMS companies. In 1991 Larry Padmani purchased Circuitry Engineering, a CB manufacturer which had been in business since 1965. Chris Savalia purchased and ran Intricate Technology, a board manufacturing and assembly facility. The two decided to merge their companies in 2007, changing the name to Transline Technology.

TTI moved to its current 20,000 square foot facility in Anaheim CA in 1996. The company has been running continuously since 1965, and has been under current ownership since 1991. In 2010, Transline purchased Hi Electronics, a well established metal etching fabricator, and moved it into our existing facility and gave it the Transline name. By doing so, we broadened our scope of available manufacturing services to include metal etching and flex circuits.
