Earlier this year, we shared the news of our partnership with DecTron USA—a domestic manufacturer long recognized for building high-performance, non-powered articulated arms for industrial, manufacturing, and medical environments. Today, we are proud to announce that DecTron’s catalog is now available for direct government procurement through the Extanto.com platform. This milestone makes it easier than ever for public agencies to access best-in-class equipment designed and built in the United States.
DecTron’s history spans more than forty years of continuous innovation in mechanical articulation. Unlike many in the field, the company has earned its standing not through marketing, but through a consistent record of real-world performance. With virtually zero known failures in more than four decades of service, DecTron arms are trusted by manufacturers, laboratories, and public-sector institutions that cannot afford downtime. Every component is built from solid aluminum or welded steel, sourced domestically, and machined with precision.
DecTron is more than just durable; the company’s modular, reconfigurable systems support ergonomic and operational improvements across a wide range of work environments. In lean manufacturing facilities, the Kaizen Arm enables rapid workstation adjustments to accommodate changing workflows and safety protocols. In logistics operations, DecTron arms mount barcode scanners and displays at exactly the right height and angle, improving speed and accuracy without adding clutter to high-traffic areas and valuable floor space. In clinical and research laboratories, the same precision positioning helps safeguard delicate instruments, while reducing strain on technicians.
Aerospace applications demonstrate DecTron’s value especially well. Whether supporting diagnostic devices in maintenance bays or enabling intricate component inspections on the assembly line, DecTron arms perform reliably in the most exacting conditions. Their articulation is smooth and intuitive, and their tolerances—sometimes as tight as one-thousandth of an inch—allow for fine control where it matters most. These arms are designed both to hold tools and enhance how people interact with them, which in turn elevates the quality of work performed.
Maintenance-free construction also distinguishes DecTron’s products from off-the-shelf alternatives. Their precision construction and tolerances mean no lubrication, adjustment, or disassembly is required, resulting in fewer service interruptions and lower lifetime costs. Many original equipment manufacturers integrate DecTron components into their own systems—a reflection of the company’s reputation across sectors.
Government agencies often find now that they are being asked to do more with less. As agencies at every level respond to rapid shifts in budgets, technology, labor needs, and regulatory expectations, workspace flexibility and equipment reliability are becoming more and more important. DecTron delivers on all these fronts, backed by engineering discipline and a solid reputation for proven performance. Through Extanto.com, government buyers can now procure these systems with ease using the GSA SmartPay purchase card (Visa and Mastercard both accepted). Government pricing includes shipping to the continental U.S. , simplifying the purchasing process.
We are proud to serve as a DecTron channel to the public sector. Well-built tools matter and access to thoughtfully engineered solutions can help organizations meet today’s demands while preparing for tomorrow’s challenges. DecTron is more than a product line. It is a standard for how articulated arm systems should be made—and a forward-looking solution for agencies focused on precision, durability, and results.
