Microflex, Inc.Microflex was founded as a contract development company for electronically controlled components (and needed diagnostic tools) which were emerging in both the US automotive and heavy truck manufacturing companies during the 1980’s. Microflex had as clients, ‘the big three US automobile companies, (GM / Ford / Chrysler), plus several chassis, engine and transmission manufacturers in the heavy truck industry. During this evolution, Mr. White and Microflex engineering were influential in the conception for the very needed electronic data links which allowed for communications between electronically controlled components on Class 7&8 trucks. This highly innovative work, (jointly funded by Ryder, Cummins, Caterpillar and Freightliner), led to the creation of communication standards for this class of commercial vehicle adopted by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). (J1587, J1922, ODB).With this work in the heavy truck segment of the transportation industry, Mr. White recognized the need for a ‘universal diagnostic platform’ for the heavy truck industry. His paper and work in this arena led to a nomination for the prestigious Technology Man of the Year by the Heavy Truck Industry in 1990. Mr. White presented the paper on this diagnostic concept at the inaugural meeting of the European Truck Maintenance Council in London, 1990.Microflex was acquired by Eaton Corporation in 1990.
