The company is planning for this growth trend to continue.
One reason for the company's continuing expansion has been a substantial on-going investment in research and development.
The increasing implementation of linear motor technology by industry has been a commercial area Aerotech has been able to exploit with its broad range of high performance motors, drives and controllers.
There also has been strong development in the emerging precision fibre optics industries, where Aerotech's high accuracy positioning systems - built using its own brushless linear servomotors and motion control technologies - have found rapid favour.
Due to strong market demand, the fibre optics industry increasingly needs to automate their testing, assembly, and manufacturing processes.
Aerotech's extensive expertise with high volume, high duty-cycle production machines for 24/7 operation are providing the automation solutions required by the fibre optics industry.
