Tranter traces its origins to automotive pioneer R.E. Olds, who founded a firm in 1932 to manufacture eutectic plates for refrigerated delivery trucks. Headquartered at a plant located in Lansing, MI, USA, the company was purchased by J.R. Tranter five years later. In the late 1940s, the firm developed PLATECOIL® Prime Surface Heat Exchangers as immersion heaters or coolers and as exchanger panels integral or attached to process vessels. In 1967, the company acquired a plant in Wichita Falls, TX, adding oil field equipment to its product line. Tranter began the process of relocation from Lansing to this plant. In 1972, Tranter added SUPERCHANGER® Gasketed Plate Heat Exchangers to its line through a licensing agreement. By the mid-1980s, Tranter had moved all production to Wichita Falls and concentrated manufacturing exclusively on the two plate heat exchanger lines. In the 1990s, Tranter’s vision became global with the acquisition of the Sweden-based Reheat and SWEP gasketed plate heat exchanger product lines and their representation network in Europe, Asia and Australia.
