SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - PennZone -- Senseeker Corp, a leading innovator of digital infrared image sensing technology, can now respond to customer requirements more quickly and thoroughly through the acquisition of Axis Machine (Santa Barbara, California) by Senseeker Machining Company (SMC).

Senseeker Machining Company will continue to support and grow Axis Machine's established customer base built up over 20+ years in delivering high-quality machined parts. The acquisition will enable Senseeker to further grow mechanical component lines and to reduce the lead time on machined parts used in Senseeker's programs and portfolio of industry standard commercial cryogenic test equipment for testing infrared focal plane arrays.

SMC will continue to operate from the existing machine shop facility, located at 81 David Love Place, just a short walk from the Senseeker Corp headquarters in Santa Barbara. The SMC facility is equipped with several 3-Axis and 4-Axis CNC Machining Centers, Lathes and Multi-Axis Milling Equipment to be able to maintain a high throughput of work. A Mitutoyo DCC-CMM, optical comparator and a full range of precision inspection tools are used for quality control. SMC also runs industry standard CAD and CNC programming software.
