About Trust Automation
Trust Automation designs motors, drives, actuators, controllers and power-conversion systems for equipment requiring high performance within constrained size, weight and thermal limits. Its engineers develop the electromagnetic, mechanical, electronic and embedded-control layers together, allowing a complete motion or power subsystem to be delivered rather than separate components.
The company operates design, qualification and manufacturing from a 96,000-square-foot California facility and serves semiconductor equipment, defence, radar and aerospace programmes. Its defence work includes the Small Unmanned Aircraft System Defence System, supported by a US Air Force indefinite-delivery contract awarded in 2025. Trust supplies prototypes, low-rate production and sustained manufacturing, giving programme customers one organisation for engineering changes, testing and lifecycle support.
