Craftsperson / Assembly Technician

COMPANY DESCRIPTION
Founded in Singapore in 2004, Akribis Systems is a motion control company that provides high precision direct drive motors. We construct products for a range of industries including renewable energy, semiconductor, communication, biomedical, robotics or any industry that requires precise motion.

We produce direct drive motors with a high force density and patented coil design that decreases cogging. Our linear and rotary motors also are available with stages that we manufacture ourselves so you can smoothly integrate the motor into your design.

More than simply a manufacturer, we are also innovators. Our deep knowledge of engineering and dedication to the work has resulted in 92 patents, and our research and development into the field of magnetics will only continue to grow our business. Our engineers are able to custom design motors and stages to your specific requirements with you as a co-developer.

Today, we have five production factories and numerous sales and support offices across the globe. At Akribis Systems, precision matters.

**Department Overview**:
Our Stage business unit specializes in manufacturing high-precision stages (motion systems) for a diverse clientele across industries including semiconductors, solar, flat panel, hard disk, LED, printed circuit board, and additive manufacturing. These stages are meticulously crafted assemblies comprising various components such as motors, encoders, bearings, structural parts, pneumatics, etc., meticulously assembled and qualified to meet comprehensive precision and throughput specifications. Our business caters to both bespoke (built-to-spec) designs and catalog products, with a focus on high-mix, low-volume production and technically challenging projects.
