The 80’s
At Swager Communications, Inc., we have a long history of successfully completing demanding contracts around the world. In the 1980s, we worked with the US Air Force to redesign the ASR radar tower to facilitate the progression to the ASR-9 generation of radars. This project was particularly challenging because we had to redesign the tower to accommodate the new radar system while maintaining the footprint of the existing towers. However, with our expertise in tower design and fabrication, we were able to successfully complete this project, resulting in the development of our AB-1368/F radar tower.
The AB-1368/F radar tower has since been installed in numerous locations worldwide and has proven to be a reliable and effective solution for radar systems. This project was just one example of how Swager Communications, Inc. uses innovation and ingenuity to meet the demands of even the most challenging contracts.
Today, we continue to be at the forefront of tower design, fabrication, and installation, with a focus on providing turnkey solutions for government agencies and commercial accounts. With our skilled and experienced team of professionals, we are well positioned to take on the most demanding projects around the world. At Swager Communications, Inc., we are committed to providing exceptional service, quality workmanship, and innovative solutions that meet the unique needs of every client.
The 90’s
In the 1990s, Swager Communications, Inc. continued to refine our tower designs, especially focusing on improvements for the RTR/RCAG towers used for airport communications. As technology continued to advance, we were able to incorporate new and innovative ideas into our designs. This led to the development of better solutions for airport communications towers.
During this time, CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software became the industry standard, allowing us to produce more accurate and detailed tower designs. We also began to use a variety of software tools to further advance our tower design capabilities. These tools allowed us to develop more efficient tower structures that were able to withstand harsh environmental conditions.
​
Our commitment to using the latest technology has allowed us to maintain our position as a leader in the tower and communications industry. We continue to utilize the most advanced software and design tools available to ensure that our towers are of the highest quality and meet the needs of our clients.
At Swager Communications, Inc., we are always seeking to improve our designs and to stay at the forefront of technological advancements in the industry. Our experienced team works closely with each client to develop customized solutions that address their specific communication needs, while ensuring that safety, quality, and efficiency are always top priorities.
The New Century – 2000’s
In the 2000s, Swager Communications, Inc. continued to innovate and refine our tower designs to meet the changing needs of the industry. We worked on significant upgrades to existing tower designs for localizer platforms, RTR/RCAG towers, and MALSR towers used at airports.
One of the most significant developments in tower design during this time was the use of towers with larger faces to accommodate a stairway for platform access. This allowed us to support the same number of antennas with fewer towers, resulting in increased efficiency and cost savings for our clients. This design also eliminated the need for fall protection equipment and special training for antenna technicians, making tower maintenance and repair safer and more accessible.
At Swager Communications, Inc., we are committed to utilizing the latest technology and innovative design solutions to provide our clients with the most efficient and effective tower systems. Our experienced team of professionals works closely with clients to understand their specific requirements and design customized solutions to meet their needs.
As we move into the future, we will continue to build upon our legacy of innovation and excellence in tower design and fabrication. We are dedicated to ensuring that our clients receive the highest quality towers and communication systems, delivered with exceptional customer service, and a focus on safety and reliability.
