Aspect Automation, now proudly part of Ascential Medical and Life Sciences, brings over 75 years of engineering ingenuity and a legacy of pushing boundaries in custom automated manufacturing. Founded in 1949 by Fred L. Remmele as part of Remmele Engineering, the company was born from a commitment to innovative solutions and respect for the people who make them possible. Aspect is based in Blaine, Minnesota convenient to Minneapolis’s medtech hub.
Built on Ingenuity and Partnership
From its earliest days crafting machines for the printing industry, Remmele Engineering—and later its automation division that evolved into Aspect Automation—has been defined by a willingness to take on challenges others deemed impossible. This ethos continues today, reflecting a culture of creativity, problem-solving, and dedication to customer success.
Over the decades, Aspect has evolved to become a leader in high-speed automated manufacturing systems for applications including medical and life sciences. Milestones include becoming a standalone company in 2008, joining the Burke Porter Group in 2020, and integrating into Ascential Medical and Life Sciences in 2023. Today, Aspect retains its commitment to innovation, collaboration, and deep expertise in automation while enhancing its end to end commercial pathway support and global reach through Ascential Medical & Life Sciences.
