MARYSVILLE, OH—Honda is producing critical components for the production of much-needed ventilators at its assembly plant here. The components are being delivered to Dynaflo Inc., a manufacturer of vacuum pumps and compressors in Reading, PA.
Honda teamed up with Dynaflo to increase the company’s production of diaphragm compressors, a key component of portable ventilators that are used in hospitals and by first responders to help those stricken with the coronavirus. The companies are aiming to produce 10,000 compressors per month once production reaches capacity. Honda and Dynaflo expect to maintain production of compressors through the end of August.
