ION Precision Products Story and Timeline

1991 – The company General Inverter is started in Brazil. Josue Zazulla leaves his position as an induction heater engineer where he was exposed to a/c electric motor control technology after he realized that the technology could be used in the rectifier industry.
1993 – The first Pulse rectifier project is completed and installed. It was an 1800 Amp / 10V unit, the size of a refrigerator. It’s still working!
1995 – First microprocessor control panel implemented in a General Inverter Rectifier.
2008 – Plastic non-corrosive enclosures were implemented for the first time. Stainless steel was always cost-prohibitive in Brazil.
2011 – LCD full color integrated control panel implemented.
2012 – General Inverter surpasses one million in sales.
2013 – The one thousandth General Inverter unit is completed and installed.
