Arnold To Move Marengo Operations to Woodstock, Illinois
Arnold to Start Exciting New Chapter in its History on the Brink of its 130th Anniversary
Rochester, NY: Arnold Magnetic Technologies Corporation ("Arnold"), a subsidiary of Compass Diversified (NYSE: CODI) and leading global manufacturer of high-performance motors, magnets, & thin metals recently acquired a state-of-the-art 130,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Woodstock, Illinois for their Precision Thin Metals and Alnico divisions.
Arnold will move its operations 14 miles from Marengo, Illinois to the new facility in Woodstock, which is also in McHenry County. The new location was carefully selected to be convenient for the existing workforce to easily make the transition. The relocation will occur during the 4th quarter of 2024 and will follow a structured, phased approach designed to minimize disruption to Arnold's customers. This transition comes on the brink of Arnold's 130th anniversary in 2025, opening an exciting new chapter in the history of the company.
Arnold's CEO, Dan Miller, commented, "The Marengo facility has been with Arnold since 1930, and it has allowed us to serve countless customers, having a permanent place in the history of this company. At the same time, our new facility marks an exciting step forward for our company. It will only expand and strengthen our capacity to continue providing quality products and services to our Precision Thin Metals and Alnico customers across the board."
David Eakins, Director of Operations for both divisions, commented, "While moving operations as sophisticated and complex as Arnold's Precision Thin Metals and Alnico divisions is no easy feat, our Team will approach this transition with all of the ingenuity and expertise that has allowed us to run a leading operation for over a century."

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
