December 2009 - Testek Acquires the Manufacturing and Data Rights of AAI Mississippi!
Many years from now when we look back at our corporate history, 2009 will be known as the year in which Testek Inc took the next important step in strengthening our position in the test equipment industry.
Testek Inc is no stranger to acquiring companies. In the past Testek has acquired the manufacturing rights of George L. Nankervis Co, American Avitron, Cox Instruments, & Hamilton Sundstrand for the TS1650. Continuing that strategy, Testek Inc is pleased to announce that it has acquired the manufacturing rights and propriety data of AAI Mississippi formerly known as AAI \ ACL Technologies.
When AAI had announced its intentions to close down AAI Mississippi operations, many Test Equipment manufactures were interested in acquiring an exclusive license to build the company's products, but in the end AAI wanted a company they could trust, a company that had the technical know-how and experience, a company that was financially stable to supports its customers. AAI chose Testek Inc.
Testek management continues to explore new ways to strengthen and grow our business and to position ourselves to meet and overcome tomorrow's challenges and to continue to keep our team members busy and deliver value to all our customers. |

May 2008 - Testek is looking for Test Stand models.
All shapes and sizes are welcome.
Please note the brochures\banners will add 10 lbs to your weight.
We cannot promise that the material will be published in non-wide-screen format. Please note you should not allow the fame and glory of being a Test Stand Model go to your head. The test stand paparazzi unlike Hollywood are usually of the mild kind, however we can’t make any promises but as long as Brittney Spears is alive, you should be okay.
If you believe you have what it takes to be a Test Stand Model, please send me an email.
If the lifestyle of being a Test Stand Model is not for you, but you would like to suggest a Testek Team Member who you believe would make a good model, please send me an email.
Please be aware due to the expectation of an overwhelming amount of responses and the cut throat modeling industry, it is not possible for us to get back to everyone. |
