MTNW Rebrands as Rugged Controls

Maritime Activity Reports, Inc.

January 3, 2017

Rugged Controls, LLC announced its launch, evolving from Measurement Technology NW Line Control Instruments (LCI) group, who since 2001 has provided line control, tension monitoring, and winch monitoring equipment.

 
Rugged Controls said it will continue to manufacture MTNW’s previous product portfolio including running line tensiometers, smart deck machinery and LCI flagship displays, which are used in extreme, marine and outdoor environments where rugged, high visibility electronics are required for operation.
 
Commenting the decision to rebrand the company, Rugged Controls president Tom Rezanka said, “Over the past five years, our business has diversified beyond ‘Line Control Instrumentation’, as we now provide solutions for a variety of applications such as pressure, torque, rig instrumentation and more with a common theme: rugged electronics and sensors, mission critical reliability, data acquisition, control and reporting features. We knew it was time to align our brand with our expanded capabilities and core competencies.”
 
Along with a new logo, a new mobile responsive website (www.rugged-controls.com) has been launched that includes new resources, product guides and case studies.
The orderbook for U.S. dredgers is about $3B, and according to DCA CEO Bill Doyle, the incoming political administration could help this niche maritime sector continue its bull run.
