ECKHART & ASSOCIATES

In 1974, Harry A. Eckhart founded Eckhart & Associates, Inc. in Lansing, Michigan. Eckhart provided custom engineered solutions primarily for the automotive industry. Eckhart grew in experience and versatility, eventually adding electric and pneumatic controls capabilities to the mechanical design and manufacturing skills. In 1992, Eckhart moved to a 12,000 sq. ft. building and was able to expand its product and customer base. A greater emphasis was placed on assembly fixtures, semi-automated wo... rk stations, torque fastening systems and inspection equipment. During the 1990's the automotive industry began a major push toward ergonomic parts handling equipment and torque reaction devices. Eckhart was at the forefront in creating custom designed ergonomic equipment to fill this need. In March of 2001, the company relocated to its current location which allowed Eckhart to bid on larger, more sophisticated projects, many of which required static and dynamic customer run-offs. Because of further growth in business, Eckhart has added two additional buildings on the existing property. This expanded the total campus square footage to over 50,000 sq. ft.More
