MTS Announces Expanded Service Capabilities in Europe

EDEN PRAIRIE, MN -- MTS Systems Corporation, a supplier of high-performance test systems and position sensors, announces the expansion of Test Services capabilities in its Berlin facility. This expansion was driven by growing customer demand in Europe, which not only represents a meaningful portion of the installed base of MTS test equipment, but is also a key market for long-term growth of new, highly sophisticated Test equipment, driven by the European automotive OEM's and other key research laboratories.

As an example of the value offered to MTS European customers with the renovations and upgrade of the Berlin facility, MTS was able to rapidly respond to a recent German automotive customer's request for support in expanding their testing capabilities in the laboratory of an Eastern European affiliate. By conducting the work locally in Germany, MTS was able to deliver the needed system three weeks ahead of schedule, and successfully install it at the customer site within one week of the customer acceptance at the Berlin facility. This capability to rapidly address the needs of European Test customers will enhance customer satisfaction and further stimulate demand for MTS products and services in the years ahead.
