SPEKTRA GmbH and APS Dynamics, Inc are pleased to announce the acquisition of Precision Labs, LLC

SPEKTRA Schwingungstechnik und Akustik GmbH Dresden and APS Dynamics, Inc are pleased to announce the acquisition of Precision Labs, LLC effective 1 January 2020. Precision Labs is an A2LA accredited laboratory providing vibration, shock and acoustic calibration services to customers mainly in the southwest United States.

Precision Labs was established in 2005 and began operations in Irvine, California. In 2009, SPEKTRA USA and Precision Labs joined forces and co-located in an office in San Juan Capistrano, California. After more than 10 years of business cooperation – SPEKTRA USA selling calibration systems and Precision Labs providing calibration services – owners Nancy and Chris Romero elected to sell Precision Labs to SPEKTRA USA. 

“Nancy and I are very pleased that Precision Labs is now part of SPEKTRA / APS Dynamics. We both look forward to seeing the companies grow and have a great future,” Chris Romero said following the completion of the acquisition.

“Our thanks to Nancy and Chris for the great cooperation and support over these many years, and we will do our best to continue the traditions of excellent service and customer support that they have established in this business,” SPEKTRA Managing Director Martin Nicklich said.
