Tovey Engineering, Inc.

Founding and Growth

Tovey Engineering was founded in 1995 to advance the state-of-the-art in high performance load cells and to provide a sophisticated force measurement resource for mechanical test engineers and force and torque metrology labs. The Company has generated significant growth in both revenues and number of customers since inception, with particularly rapid growth over the last few years. Our commitment to a strong technical foundation is reflected in our customer base. Tovey currently manufactures load cells for many major test machine makers and sells very high performance load cells on a private label basis to select calibration and branded load cell firms. Our customers include domestic and international measurement firms, research and standards labs, aerospace and automotive industries.
