History:

ACE, Inc. was established in 1998.  The Founder, Ken Bergler, started doing contract work in the fields of CAD, solid modeling, CNC part programming, and Zeiss CMM programming.  At this time, Carl Zeiss IMT had a need for additional support for their turnkey projects.  ACE began to develop a very positive reputation with its customers.  Without advertising, work increased through word of mouth and repeat business.

 

In 1999, ACE could no longer handle the quantity of work it was receiving, so ACE expanded.  A building was leased in Sterling Heights, Michigan, a Zeiss Prismo 10 purchased, and 3 additional engineers hired.  With the additional resources, ACE was able to take on larger projects while continuing to give its customers the quality they had come to expect.  Over the next five years, ACE continued to expand its customer base.

 

In 2005, ACE moved to Shelby Township, Michigan into a new facility that better served their needs.

 

In 2008, ACE acquired Quality Tech Inc. This expanded their resources by adding 3 additional CMM's, and adding U-Soft, Metrolog, and PC-Dmis to the range of programming platforms.  With more than 6 full time application engineers, no projects are too big.

 

In 2011, ACE became a destributer of Renishaw products.  ACE now offers retrofits, new machine sales and support for Revo, PH20, and Equator.  Full turn-key solutions are available for all of our products.
