Milwaukee-based Taylor Dynamometer announced Tuesday it has acquired Dyne Systems Inc. of Jackson.
Taylor manufactures dynamometers and turnkey test cell solutions for engine testing. Dyne makes eddy current, AC and DC dynamometers, controls and drives. Taylor said the acquisition would give the company a stronger foothold in the engine, vehicle and industrial component testing industry.
“We are thrilled to welcome Dyne Systems to the Taylor family,” said Art Downey, president of Taylor Dynamometer. “Both Taylor Dynamometer and Dyne Systems have grown to become industry leaders through groundbreaking ideas, highly-engineered products and experts in execution. It is a natural and complementary acquisition for Taylor Dynamometer that I believe will benefit both companies.”
Dyne has 25 to 30 employees at its 18,400-square-foot facility at W209-N17391 Industrial Drive in Jackson. Taylor has 50 employees at its facility in Milwaukee’s Menomonee Valley.
Taylor plans to keep the Dyne staff and continue operations at both facilities.
“Joining Taylor Dynamometer is a tremendous opportunity for Dyne Systems, for both customers and employees alike,” said Alan Brown, president of Dyne Systems. “Partnering with our customers has always been vital to providing the highest level of service, and by incorporating Taylor’s innovative technology and capabilities; we will be better positioned to respond to our customers’ needs.”
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
