Austin American Technology (AAT) has expanded its inline cleaner production capacity by three times over the past six months, strengthening its ability to meet growing customer demand. The increase follows the successful acquisition and integration of Aqua Klean Systems’ manufacturing personnel and capabilities into AAT’s Texas facility.

The expansion allows AAT to significantly improve build times while enhancing production technology and operational efficiency. By consolidating inline cleaner manufacturing under one roof in Austin, the company has streamlined workflows, increased throughput, and expanded its skilled production team.

This growth builds on AAT’s integration with Aqua Klean Systems, bringing together 65 years of combined experience in the design and manufacture of batch and inline cleaning systems for SMT and PCB cleaning applications. The unified team now supports one of the industry’s most extesnsive portfolios of batch cleaners, inline cleaners, solvent cleaners, and stencil cleaning systems.

“Our customers are demanding shorter lead times and advanced cleaning performance, and we’ve made the investments to deliver both,” said Todd Rountree, CEO of Austin American Technology. “By expanding our inline production capacity and integrating Aqua Klean’s expertise into our Austin operations, we’re positioned to build faster and support customers with even greater efficiency.”

All AAT cleaning systems are engineered and manufactured in Austin, Texas, and are tailored to meet each customer’s specific process requirements. The company serves a wide range of industries, including automotive, medical, military, and aerospace, where precision cleaning and reliability are critical.

With increased production capacity and a strengthened engineering and manufacturing team, Austin American Technology is well positioned to support continued growth in inline cleaning demand while maintaining the performance and service standards its customers expect.
