Summit Technologies LLC, a full service design and build tool and die manufacturer, has been acquired by Godfrey & Wing. The transaction was completed on December 31, 2007.
Wade Fisher, the Owner of Summit Technologies LLC, has joined Godfrey & Wing as Engineering Manager. All other Summit personnel have been added to the GW team to ensure a seamless transition for Summit customers, suppliers and industry partners.
“By joining forces the amount of innovation and resources we can offer our customers increases dramatically. The global presence of Godfrey & Wing will open markets to our products and services that were previously beyond our reach”, commented Wade Fisher.
Summit was poised to be a key supplier of precision components for Godfrey & Wing’s patented Continuous Flow Impregnation Systems and had built multiple batch impregnation systems over the years for GW and other customers.
Brad Welch, CFO of GW offered, “Given growing demand for our CFi technology and Summit’s expertise in vacuum impregnation equipment made this an easy decision for GW. We can’t ignore that Summit also has a very strong tool and die and specialty equipment capability that allows GW to offer additional capabilities to our existing customer base. Summit also has a loyal customer base that we will continue to serve and hopefully grow in the coming years.”
