Industrial Power Sales is a distributor of tools, assembly systems and material handling equipment and has represented Atlas Copco Tools & Assembly Systems for 28 years. The company is headquartered in Raleigh, N.C., and employs 61 people.

“The acquisition will give Atlas Copco better geographical coverage, allowing us to meet the needs of our global and regional customers. In addition, Industrial Power Sales employees have a great deal of valuable knowledge and experience, which complements that of our own people,” said Rahmstrom.
