Microwave Techniques Acquires Assets of Industrial Microwave Systems (IMS)

July 7, 2021

Microwave Techniques, LLC the parent company of MEGA, is pleased to announce that is has acquired all of the assets and IP of Raleigh, North Carolina based Industrial Microwave Systems, LLC (IMS) from Laitram, LLC.

Industrial Microwave Systems

Gorham, Maine and Nashua, New Hampshire –

The acquisition of Industrial Microwave Systems (IMS) by Mega and Ferrite’s parent company, Microwave Techniques, LLC, creates a global leader in high-power 915 MHz microwave heating and drying systems for both solids and fluids. The merging of these two long-time leading microwave systems brands (IMS and Ferrite) offers customers a one stop source for lab and commercial scale microwave systems.

Mega Industries product line focuses on microwave components. These components often integrate into large scale microwave systems such as IMS’s and Ferrite’s. FMT also has its own line of legacy microwave components, including: circulators, isolators, loads, windows, and more.


About Microwave Techniques: Systems & Components

Microwave Techniques, LLC (MT) created a global leader in high power microwave solutions, after the merging of MEGA and FMT in 2020. The group now adds Industrial Microwave Systems fluid heating and continuous belt-based systems into its expansive product portfolio.

Industrial Microwave Systems IMS MT

Microwave Techniques offers dual expertise in high-power microwave components, as well as complete microwave systems for applications including: tempering, heating, cooking, drying, bonding, curing, reacting, cracking and sterilizing.

  • Large Scale Industrial Microwave Systems
  • Industrial Microwave Systems Drying
  • Industrial Microwave Systems Continuous
  • Industrial Microwave Systems Ferrite IMS

The systems division offers large scale microwave solutions such as: belt and continuous, batch ovens, fluid and slurry heating systems, lab-scale, single mode and multi mode systems. It also offers stand-alone microwave generators or transmitters to provide power to systems. The systems group is based in Nashua, New Hampshire – and is moving to a much larger facility in the fall to support IMS production and its continued growth.

The components division offers a multitude of components, many of which have industrial settings, such as: rigid waveguides, tuners, transitions, circulators, combiners, transitions, loads, and beyond. The components group is based in Gorham, Maine, with two facilities located directly across the street from one another.


About Industrial Microwave Systems (IMS)

Industrial Microwave IMS

Industrial Microwave Systems (IMS), a Microwave Techniques company, is a leading designer of innovative, patented microwave systems for continuous flow manufacturing processes that require rapid and uniform heating and drying. 

Industrial Microwave Systems LLC

IMS lab solutions at 2450 MHz and production systems at 915 MHz, supporting clients across a wide variety of industries, including chemicals, food processing, industrial products, nonwovens, textiles and mining. Industrial Microwave Systems, LLC is the original developer and leading provider of fluid/slurry microwave heating systems. To learn more about IMS, we welcome you to visit their website.


About the Acquisition

Deal terms have not been announced. The combined company will continue to use the various brand names (MT, MEGA, FMT, IMS, MCi and FXR) and employ over 100 people with over 100,000+ square feet of production capacity across the multiple facilities in Maine, New Hampshire, and North Carolina.

MT IMS Industrial Microwave Systems

“We are excited to add IMS’s team and innovated portfolio of patented products into the group.”  said Scott Knoll, a partner with Microwave Techniques ownership group.   “We have always seen strong demand for fluid-based microwave systems so adding IMS’s patented fluid applicator unit is highly strategic and combining with our rapidly growing components business we can now offer all segments of the high power microwave industry a one stop shop for components, systems and specialized microwave design services.”
