Market Leadership

Our companies are recognized as the leaders in each of the niche markets in which they operate. Whether its automotive safety, automated driving systems, specialty optical fiber and related solutions, industrial load cells and other sensors or precision laser cutting design, we are known as innovators and the experts in our fields.

Financial Backing

For the past 70 years, we have invested in our capabilities, technologies and global infrastructure to deliver the most innovative products and services to our customers worldwide. Our customers should take comfort in our longevity as a test and measurement leader as well as with our strong financial foundation.

Our Work in Action

We draw our own specialty optical fiber in southern England, design custom electronic sensors in the heart of the technology cluster outside of Boston and code sophisticated virtual testing models in our office in Bangalore. Our crash safety experts in places like Heidelberg, Tokyo, Nagoya, Shanghai and Detroit provide direct support to every automaker and safety supplier wherever they choose to manufacture vehicles. Our products keep jet fighters on course, ensure proper dosages of life-saving medicine are properly administered to patients, allow the Mars Rover to send back data from the Red Planet, and help protect astronauts from extreme gravitational forces. Explore some of the ways our technology is applied from cutting edge aerospace projects taking humankind to the edge of our galaxy, to manufacturing microscopic components for particle colliders.

We Have Worked Hard to Achieve Market Leadership

To support our expansion, we wanted to create a strong platform for our operating companies to engage with customers in new sectors and new markets. So, we formed the Humanetics Group to show that we are part of the same company, leveraging our knowledge, engineering skills and infrastructure to strengthen our operations and accelerate our innovation. Together we are stronger.
