By 1977, we expanded our capabilities to include sheet metal fabrication. A couple of years later, we implemented CNC technology. We outgrew our production facilities and moved to Carol Stream, IL, in 1997. In 2006, Prince established a new division, QP Hydraulics, which sells products into the mobile and industrial hydraulics markets.Today we operate three manufacturing facilities two in Illinois and one in Shanghai, China, and have hundreds of employees, prepared to meet the most demanding applications from quick/immediate delivery of JIT components to high-volume production components and assemblies. And, as a growth-focused firm, we are strongly committed to serving our customers future growth as well as our own.by Jobble
