AMETEK

AMETEK is a global maker of electronic instruments and electromechanical devices. It designs and builds analytical, test and measurement equipment. It also makes automation and motion control products. The company says it has been creating technology since 1930.

The company is organized into two operating groups. One group focuses on advanced instruments for testing, measuring and analyzing. These products serve the energy, aerospace, power, research, medical and industrial markets. The other group makes automation and precision motion control solutions.

The second group also builds highly engineered electrical interconnects, which are parts that link electrical systems. It produces specialty metals and thermal management systems too. Thermal management means controlling heat in equipment. Both groups work in niche markets, which are small and specialized areas of industry.

AMETEK describes six key areas of work. One is support for next generation aerospace and defense platforms. Another is better tools for testing, measurement and detection. The company also serves medical and healthcare fields, where equipment must be dependable.

Other areas include reliable energy, production and supply, and research and development work. The company also points to data centers as a growing market. It offers power system simulation to help data center operators manage risk and bring projects online sooner.

The company explains its approach as a growth model with four parts. These are operational excellence, new product development, expansion into new markets and regions, and strategic acquisitions. It also says it runs a decentralized business, so each operating unit manages its own products and customers.
