Our precision power and control technologies, along with our applications know-how, inspire close partnerships and perpetual innovation in thin-film and industrial manufacturing.

Founded in 1981, AE has built a diversified and global business, delivering advanced power and control technologies to customers across a broad range of industries. The AE team, deployed throughout North America, Europe, and Asia, provides technical expertise and responsive and agile power solutions for thin-film and industrial manufacturing.

AE thermal management systems offer precision temperature measurement and control, while AE power control modules provide exceptional quality for heating, melting, bending, forming, or drying in a wide variety of industrial applications.

SCR POWER CONTROLLERS

Advanced Energy's Thyro-Family offers reliable and innovative power supply solutions with high quality standards for optimized applications, e.g.

• heating
• melting
• drying
• forming

Whether in traditional areas or in special applications such as direct heated melting, float glass, cooling channels, container glass or glass bending and printed glass drying, our products have been tried and tested for years. Even for newer applications such as TFT Glass, or for future-orientated technologies that are still in the experimental stage, customers trust the solutions and the experience of our Thyro-Family.

ADVANCED ENERGY WORLDWIDE

Our clientele range from traditional power generators and companies in the oil, gas and petrochemical sector all the way to pioneers of power generation from renewable forms of energy. Issues such as quality, know-how, service and reliability are very much a part of our everyday internal discussions. Our longstanding relationships with our customers confirm that the standards we set ourselves are measured against these criteria of outstanding performance. It is for this reason that Advanced Energy is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of electronic systems and solutions for industrial power supply and offers one of the most comprehensive portfolios of products and services for power conversion and control.

Through our expertise in renewable energy and our knowledge of the global power supply infrastructure, we are able to intelligently combine electricity supply and consumption. Together with our customers we thus create innovative energy management systems that facilitate ‘intelligent’ control appropriate to demand.

RELY ON THE EXPERTS

Our customers’ requirements are ultimately always very individual. That calls for not only a broad spectrum of products and possible ways to use them, but also requires direct and individual support. In order to be able to react to new market development as flexibly as we can and to support our customers as quickly and continuously as possible, our subsidiaries provide the appropriate service with the required proximity to our customers all around the globe.

The multitude of new ideas, products and possibilities always brings with it new demands. Creative technicians, engineers and scientists work day in, day out for AE on new products that, for instance, provide protection from power cuts and the associated loss of data and costly downtime. With our engineers, technicians and project managers, AE performs pioneering work in R&D and application engineering.
