General Info

Bitrode Corporation began as an in-house department developing formation chargers for Acme Battery, a manufacturer in St. Louis. The company developed into a stand-alone company, known at that time as Meteor Production Engineering, that provided charging solutions to manufacturers of automotive, standby and motive power batteries. Bitrode then developed lines of production and laboratory test equipment to meet the demands of many segments of the battery industry. Additionally, the company works to see that this equipment integrates with research and development and manufacturing flows, with software interfaces developed for network control, data acquisition and analysis. Bitrode Corporation was founded in 1957 and maintains its corporate headquarters in Fenton, Mo.
