Leading the Way to Innovation

Leadership is a key element in DJ Instruments’ success. The company was founded by Dave First and Jean Pierre Pugnaire, pioneers in engineering new applications of strain-gage technology.

Their vision was to create a business that would expand the boundaries of that technology — while also meeting or exceeding their customers’ expectations every time. DJ Instruments would not be confined to providing catalog items or one-size-fits-all products. Instead, it would draw on every element of its people’s knowledge and experience to solve new and unusual application challenges.

DJ Instruments fulfills that legacy every day. The company continues as the leaders in strain gage technology. Dave and Jean Pierre have used their leadership skills to hand on unsurpassed expertise to today’s DJ Instruments engineers. The solutions they provide are as unique as the challenges they are presented.

Whether it is developing an unusual wireless torque sensing device for a high-performance bicycle or a uniquely shaped load cell to prevent valuable product overflow, DJ Instruments leads the industry in innovative application solutions.
