CTEC was founded in 2023 by a former NASA engineer and patented inventor with the goal of providing NASA level problem solving and expertise to companies of all sizes.
CTEC has partnered with individuals and companies that share the same desire to tackle every opportunity with the highest level dedication. Where many companies and consultants try to force clients into cookie-cutter solutions, CTEC is no stranger to out of the box thinking, and taking on challenges that others shy away from.
Our team at CTEC have expansive career histories ranging from aerospace R&D to industrial IT and software development. All of our team members have years of experience in cutting edge technology development and real world implementation. We strive to make your automation project run smoothly and seamlessly.
At CTEC we focus on helping medium to small companies that are looking to automate the difficult and/or dangerous areas of their production with the goal of creating safer higher quality roles, and reduce unnecessary turn-over.
We have worked with clients in a variety of industries in welding/industrial metal fabrication, electronics manufacturing, scientific research and development, aerospace, pharma/nutritional supplements, and consumer goods.
We also work with other integrators to provide additional project and engineering support during the design, development, installation, and commissioning parts of an automation project.
We specialize in providing engineering solutions for industry. Everything from out of this world mechanical design, to time saving automation, cutting edge software and firmware development, integrating the latest in robotic arm technology, and anything in between, we can help.
Don't forget, we also offer our expertise to help you develop your next product idea. From design to manufacturing, if you have a novel idea, we can help turn it into reality.
