Thomson Industries expands U.S. operations for motion control production

February 28, 2019 – Thomson Industries, Inc., a manufacturer of mechanical motion control solutions, is expanding its operations at its headquarters in the United States.

The plant expansion is the result of moving the Thomson-affiliated Warner Linear product line from its current location of New Hartford, Connecticut to its Marengo, Illinois, facility, bringing more than 50 new jobs to the region.

Both Thomson and Warner Linear rod-style electric linear actuators are used to control push/pull type motion in a wide range of products.

The Illinois plant, which is the largest Thomson facility in the U.S., currently employs 225 people.
