On July 1, 1996 WIPOTEC, a leading manufacturer of load cells, started a joint venture with OPTIMA Maschinenfabrik, GmbH a multi-million-dollar filling and packaging equipment manufacturing company founded in Schwabisch Hall, Germany in 1922. In January of 1999 WIPOTEC took controlling interest of OPTIMA CONTROL SYSTEMS in Atlanta, Georgia. The continued success in Europe has prompted OPTIMA CONTROL SYSTEMS to bring our High-Speed, High Precision, and High-Performance checkweigher to North America.
