Switzer manufactures precision metal components for some of the world’s most demanding and innovative industries. We specialize in tight-tolerance, thin-gauge metal parts produced through photochemical etching — a highly precise, repeatable, and scalable manufacturing process capable of creating complex geometries that conventional manufacturing methods often cannot achieve. Our core markets include: • Hydrogen Technology — flow field plates, bipolar plates, current collectors, support screens, and precision components for fuel cells and electrolyzers • Thermal Management — flexible heating elements, cooling plates, and precision channel plates for advanced thermal systems and PCHE applications • RF & Microwave — precision shields, lead frames, connectors, and intricate components for high-frequency electronics and communications systems • Processing Equipment & Filtration — high-precision filtration screens and metal components for demanding industrial processing environments Beyond etching, our supporting capabilities — including forming, stamping, punching, and assembly — allow us to support both prototype development and scalable production programs across a wide range of applications. But our capabilities are only part of what makes Switzer different. We believe strong manufacturing partnerships are built on transparency, responsiveness, and technical honesty. We communicate directly, move quickly, and work collaboratively to solve problems others avoid. Our customers come to us when performance matters, when tolerances are tight, when designs are complex, and when conventional manufacturing approaches fall short. At Switzer, we are not content with the status quo. We continuously evolve our processes, challenge assumptions, and pursue better ways to help our customers lead their industries.
