The early years of ATC were characterized by a vision to revolutionize manufacturing through precision fixtures, tooling, and small-scale machinery. As our expertise grew, our capabilities transformed into designing and building custom automation systems to meet the diverse needs of prominent global companies. A significant milestone in this growth was the 2021 acquisition of Dynamic Automation & Robotics in Simi Valley, CA, which has since been fully integrated into the ATC brand, expanding our physical presence and enriching our technical expertise.
ATC’s approach is rooted in close collaboration and precision, treating every project as a true partnership rather than a transaction. Each opportunity begins with in-depth discussions to understand the underlying goals, constraints, and manufacturing realities driving the project. Through this collaborative process, ATC works alongside the customer to define and refine a custom solution, using that shared insight to determine the right combination of technologies needed to achieve reliable, high-performing automation.
We are defined by the individuals behind the innovation: over 100 engineers and 300+ skilled tradespeople who live and breathe the technical and regulatory nuances of your market. We believe that a successful project is a narrative of partnership, not just a technical transaction. This means we prioritize human connection and transparency at every stage of the journey. Each solution we build is a result of open communication and shared knowledge between our team and yours.
Once aligned, a dedicated operational team carries the project forward, maintaining continuity, transparency, and regular review from concept through build and installation. Capabilities such as Virtual Commissioning (VC) and integrated validation help reduce risk and confirm performance, but always in service of the larger goal: delivering a tailored, proven system that performs exactly as required.
Originally known as the Automation Tool and Engineering Company, we have spent decades navigating the complexities of the industrial landscape, engineering solutions where precision meets innovation. Today, ATC is proud to be a part of TASI Test and Automation, a globally diversified group providing advanced assembly, test, and inspection solutions to several thousand customers worldwide.
Since our inception in 1977, ATC has evolved from a specialized precision fixture and tooling shop into a leader in custom automation solutions for customers in North America and beyond. Our journey is defined by a commitment to becoming an indispensable partner for our clients, moving beyond the role of a traditional equipment vendor.
Today, ATC serves as a dependable partner to organizations across a vast spectrum of industries, including world-renowned brands. With an extensive portfolio of successful projects, we have become the go-to choice for companies aiming to modernize their processes, increase efficiency, and maintain their competitive edge.
Looking forward, we remain dedicated to pushing the boundaries of what is possible in automation. Our mission is to continue providing the intelligent, custom solutions that help businesses navigate a complex industrial landscape with confidence.
Developed to address the fundamental truth that life-critical products require specialized quality and regulatory focus. We provide structured, audit-ready validation and long-term partnership throughout clinical trials and funding cycles.
