From process design to information infrastructure to final assembly and test, we design and build systems to increase efficiency, provide greater flexibility, and improve quality. We’re committed to sustainability in all aspects of manufacturing and our systems are designed to last. Whether you need to improve one process or create an entirely new line, RedViking has the experienced project management team to make sure you get the job done.\n\n\nRedViking was spun off from SuperiorControls in 2010 after receiving a contract to redesign the powertrain testing process, machines, software and controls for the world’s largest U.S. Army helicopter Maintenance, Repair and Operations (MRO) center. We continued expanding by opening a Texas engineering center in 2012, and we’re recognized today as the U.S. leader in flexible powertrain test systems.\n\nThe two companies merged talents in 2014 to become RedViking.
