SuperiorControls isn't hiring just a few people. It's hiring a lot of people. The advanced engineering company has added 60 people to its ranks, mostly engineers and project managers. It has 12 open positions right now.
The Plymouth-based company specializes in engineering for manufacturers and helps streamline their processes. To help push that envelope further, SuperiorControls, has installed an Inductive Power Transfer test track. The test track allows manufacturing engineers and managers to see this asynchronous, flexible conveyance technology in action.
"It's the only test track like it in North America," says Rod Emery, vice president of
SuperiorControls.
Also helping drive the 30-year-old company's growth is the diversification of its client base. The firm has its roots in servicing the automotive industry, but has worked to find more clients in different industries. Some of those industries include aerospace, defense, food processing and pharmaceuticals. Automotive now makes up 15 percent of Superior Controls workload.
"We have seen a lot of growth and development in those areas," Emery says.
