Londonderry-based Bode Equipment Company — a distributor of material-handling systems, construction and loading dock/door solutions that’s served New England’s commercial and industrial clients since 1975 — has acquired Advanced Machine Technologies, another Londonderry company.

Advanced Machine Technologies, established in 2000, works with works with stainless steel, aluminum, carbon fiber, plastics and carbon steel and focuses on small lot productions, prototypes and projects for commercial and industrial companies in New England.

With over 50 employees between their two offices in New Hampshire and Massachusetts, the new operation will be focusing on supporting existing installations and current fabrication needs, Bode announced in a press release.

In the coming months, the company said, it will be expanding existing space and adding key personnel to support the growth goals of the company, including Bob Cook, former owner of AMT, who will become machining manager at Bode.

According to Bode owner Scott Fawcett, “having advanced machining positions Bode further as a potential tier-one vendor to our client base.”
