Unimatic motors, drives and linear products

Micromech of Braintree has acquired the motors, drives and linear products business divisions of Unimatic Engineers, to expand their activities in this business area

Unimatic Engineers has sold its motors, drives and linear division for an undisclosed sum to Micromech of Braintree so that it can concentrate on its core activities of rapid prototyping and CNC machining.

Micromech is a leading UK supplier of controls, servo/stepping motors and drives as well as associated motion products.

The addition of this business will give customers even greater support as well as access to a wider range of products and services.

Established over 25 years ago, Micromech has a wealth of experience in electromechanical products and can specify from single components right through to complex multi-axis systems.

If required, systems can be designed, built and commissioned to customer specifications, coupled with service and technical 'back up' recognised throughout industry as first class.

The considerable overlap of products and expertise between Micromech and the businesses purchased from Unimatic means customers can expect a seamless transition of business.

Furthermore two of the Unimatic key and highly experienced salesmen, Terry Gibbins and Jim McPhail, will be transferring to Micromech.

The acquisition was finalised over Christmas, and is operating from Micromech from January 2007.
