Products
developed from A&D's unique skills in analog-to-digital and
digital-to-analog conversion technology have helped to produce
state-of-the-art equipment, including electronic balances, scales,
weighing indicators and blood pressure monitors. Our range allows users
to measure accurately in innovative ways that fit their individual
needs, while at the same time providing cost-effective, reliable and
user-friendly products.
A&D
has built its reputation on a commitment to providing quality products
and services while rapidly responding to international needs for
innovative and accurate measurement tools. A primary strategy is
superior customer satisfaction. A&D constantly analyzes market
needs around the world to develop a full range of products for
business, industry, education and healthcare use.
Manufacturing
Since
its inception in 1977, A&D has successfully grown to become a
multi-national manufacturer with factories in Japan, China, Korea and
Australia, reflecting the worldwide demand for its cutting-edge
products.
A&D
weighing and medical products are designed and manufactured to meet
global requirements. We seek global solutions to ensure economies of
scale in production that result in higher quality, low life cost and
superior cost effectiveness.
A&D
invests heavily in state-of-the-art manufacturing. Our four
manufacturing facilities around the world are equipped with the
extensive capital equipment needed to minimize manufacturing costs
while maintaining quality of the highest standards. We are committed to
certification under IS0 9000 worldwide standards for quality.
Extended Life at Lower Running Cost
Since
our products are often manufactured with fewer mechanical and
electronic parts, they are more reliable and easier to repair in the
event that service is necessary. Our products are designed to be easy
to service and no special service tools or equipment are required. This
means that our customers can look forward to years of quality
performance from their A&D products with the lowest maintenance
costs in the industry.
A&D
was born during the early days of digital electronics. At that time,
most of the measuring, monitoring and controlling industry was still
using mechanical products to solve their problems. But, change came
quickly and many manufacturers of these products did not survive the
transition.
However,
our background is in electronics, which allowed our highly successful
entry into the weighing market with low cost, advanced digital
indicators and a rapidly expanding line of digital weighing,
controlling and testing products. Our early knowledge led to early
success, and set the stage for our growth as a world-class manufacturer
of digital products for medicine, science and industry.
Our
continuing success has come about through our ability to change, and
this skill has never been more important than it is today. Not only are
new advancements appearing every day, but markets, distribution
channels as well as the competition are changing all the time.
In
recognition of this change, A&D embarked on a comprehensive program
to provide a much wider product range, from basic low-cost products to
high-technology products. We are constantly expanding our international
manufacturing to take advantage of favorable regional economics. We are
also broadening our distribution to reach previously unavailable
markets, and we are re-engineering our information systems throughout
our global organization to meet 21st century standards.
A&D
is constantly working towards more advanced development and
state-of-the-art technology with the promise of an even brighter
future, a future that will provide greater opportunities and more
rewards for our global associates, while providing a better service to
our customers.
