Pacific Scientific

Founded in 1919 in Rockford, Illinois, Pacific Scientific initially focused on manufacturing generators, motors, and alternators. Over the decades, it expanded into diverse sectors including Armament, Aerospace, and industrial divisions. In 1998, Pacific Scientific was acquired by Danaher Corp., broadening its reach and capabilities in automation equipment. Pacific Scientific's portfolio includes AC & DC servo motors, servo drives, and other automation solutions that have been widely adopted in packaging and printing operations globally. While the company has shifted focus towards defense technologies such as energetic materials, ordinances, and lasers, its legacy automation products remain available through custom orders and sourcing networks worldwide.
