What Motivates Us:
#Precision Wins
Striving absolutely for precision and innovation. At first there was one customer, now there are thousands around the world. Since our company was established in 1988, we have been setting standards in our special field: measurement of forces and moments. We work at the highest level in everything we do: standard products, custom versions and services. Early on we established our reputation as a pioneer of technical development in this field, with an excellent team to support our problem-solving competence.
