About Us

Artisan Technology Group
Artisan Technology Group
 was created in 1999 as a manufacturing company specializing in the development and manufacture of custom scientific research instrumentation particularly geared towards research in biophysics and the life sciences.

Most any startup manufacturing company realizes the tremendous cost of the electronic test equipment required for development and production. A creative solution we discovered to decrease our equipment expenses was to obtain used equipment, oftentimes broken, which we could purchase at a fraction of the new equipment cost. We applied our expertise and resources gained from instrumentation design and manufacture to refurbish the equipment which we then utilized in our own development and production processes.
During the burst of the Dot-com and telecom bubble in the early 2000's, our customers were quickly looking for ways to reduce their overhead costs to remain competitive in their industries. Realizing the value of what we accomplished for our own company, we began to offer the same cost-saving services to our customers and were able to fulfill their rapidly rising needs.
We quickly excelled in our new industry, rolling back our manufacturing business, and became the innovative leader by effectively providing our customers return guarantees and warranties, courteous and knowledgeable customer support and technical services.

Today, Artisan Technology Group is one of the fastest growing companies that offers certified-used and pre-owned optical, scientific, and electronic test and measurement equipment at highly competitive prices. 		Understanding your changing needs

 for questionable equipment from unreliable sources and ship this equipment to their customers.

To best serve our customers, Artisan Technology Group extensively tests and maintains a large and diverse inventory. We have a state-of-the-art warehouse and lab facility centrally located in Illinois where equipment is ready to ship immediately to our customers. Accompanying this is our Best-in-Industry Return Guarantee/Warranty, excellent Customer Services, Full-Service Repair Center, and World-Class Technical Support.
We have a large inventory on hand for your immediate requirements Our experienced engineers and technicians maintain an extensive technical online resource for equipment from hundreds of manufacturers allowing our customers to make solid, informed purchasing decisions. Also, many of our customers take advantage of our Equipment Demo Program, which allows them to tryout the equipment in their application before they buy.

We help our customers manage their DMSMS supply and COTS obsolescence requirements for their in-service and extended-life equipment platforms. These programs allow our customers to extend their system's end-of-life.

For our customers who would like to recapture equity in their idle or underutilized equipment, we provide several options:
  • Trade-in
  • Cash
  • Consignment
  • Recycling
Our commitment to the environment is to recycle and extend the useful life of equipment, passing along savings to a new user rather than see it end up in a landfill. Companies that purchase used equipment effectively reduce their carbon footprint without sacrifice in quality or production.

Our goal is to provide our customers with "Value" in every sense of the word, offering reliable electronic instrumentation with a realized cost savings of up to 80% from the retail price. Our dedication to quality and customer service, combined with our industry leadership, helps us to build stronger partnerships with our customers and provide,
