Building 1: The Technology and Administration Centre, where sales, project management and our service teams are located.

Building 2: The production floor with large-scale manufacturing including the design department.

Building 3: Here we develop and manufacture our hi-tech series for lithium applications and e-mobility.

Our products are manufactured to the highest standards- DIN EN ISO 9001:2015. We work closely together with the two universities of Aachen – FH and RWTH. In addition to constant expansion of our electronic product portfolio, we support our customers through dedicated teams of experienced sales engineers, project management teams, and world travelled service staff providing excellent on-site support together with a direct client hotline for immediate personal contact.

Digatron Power Electronics Inc., Shelton (CT), USA

The first international expansion of the Digatron group was established in the USA when Digatron merged with a recognised and experienced USA manufacturer, Firing Circuits of Connecticut in 1988. It has remained a complete solution provider encompassing local manufacturing, sales, service & support in the USA since then. The incorporation of Digatron and Firing Circuits was a great technological fit, with Germany specialising in test equipment and the USA facility primarily designing and building formation rectifiers. This partnership expanded rapidly and is now renamed as “Digatron Power Electronics Inc.”, making it the largest USA supplier of test and formation systems.

Located in lower Connecticut, the USA plant in Shelton, with in-house engineering, manufacturing and service facilities, now provides the entire product portfolio of Test & Formation equipment for all battery chemistry’s including the emerging lithium, EV, ESS and lead (Pb) battery markets for North and South America, “Energizing the Americas”.

Digatron (Qingdao) Electronic Co. Ltd. Qingdao, China

In the early 1980s, with China’s reform and the opening up of the country, Digatron’s next expansion internationally was to enter China to continuously meet the growing demand of the Chinese market and provide more convenient and efficient services for Chinese customers. In 1994, the decision was made to set up its own production facility in China and Digatron (Qingdao) Electronic Co. Ltd. was founded. After more than 25 years, the location has continuously developed into a modern company with independent sales and local production. With the capability to now produce electronic test & formation equipment for all kinds of batteries, Digatron Qingdao is committed to applying advanced technology and providing high-quality products and services for the customers in China.
