Ametek acquires Switzerland-based test and measurement manufacturer

AMETEK has acquired the Teseq Group, a manufacturer of test and measurement instrumentation for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing, for CHF 83 million ($92 million).

The company, which is headquartered in Luterbach, Switzerland, manufactures a broad line of conducted and radiated EMC compliance testing systems and RF amplifiers for a wide range of industries, including aerospace, automotive, consumer electronics, medical equipment, telecommunications and transportation.

“Teseq is an excellent addition to our electrical test and measurement business,” commented Frank S. Hermance, AMETEK chairman and chief executive officer. 

“Teseq’s products and markets are complementary with our EM Test business, which we acquired in 2011. Its addition to that business provides us with opportunities for accelerating product innovation and market expansion worldwide,”. Hermance added.
