In June of 1991, Lektron began its history as a manufacturer of military electro-mechanical assemblies. The company's basic philosophy consisted of prompt delivery and quality standards which met and exceeded the customer's requirements.  In April of 1993, the business incorporated and became Lektron, Inc. The basic business philosophy continued after incorporation and in March of 1994, Lektron, Inc. was awarded Blue Ribbon status by the U.S. Army Missile Command, Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama. Out of 40 applicants, Lektron, Inc. was the tenth company selected for this award, and had the best performance with its perfect record of on-time delivery and quality. In 1996, the company expanded its line of services to include metrology equipment kitting for its military customers.  In July of 2003, Lektron acquired an 18,000 square foot machining facility located in Arab, Alabama. This acquisition enabled Lektron, Inc. to  more effectively control the quality and delivery of items produced for its customers.  In January of 2004, Lektron, Inc., moved into a newly constructed state of the art facility in Hartselle, Alabama, equipped with humidity and ESD control of all manufacturing areas.In 2013 Lektron acquired a 55,000 square foot building in South Hartselle, we began renovating the building inside and out and in 2015 relocated the Machining Operations from Arab to this building. This greatly increased productivity between the two operations because of the close proximity and giving us room to grow. In 2016 we began adding DMG Mori machines, some replacing older machines but most adding capability with 5 axis technology. We have continued adding new machines yearly since that time. In 2024 and 2025 we acquired over 30 acres of property surrounding the Machining Facility to provide more room to grow in the future. Also, in 2025 we contracted with an Architect to begin designing an addition to the Machining Facility to upgrade the building as well as provide more office space and a large conference area for customer meetings or employee training.
