Dynamic Testing and Equipment is a partnership established in 1996 by uniting the diverse backgrounds of Peter Frissell, Karl Jungman and Dave Pienta.

Peter Frissell began placing servo valves onto actuators at the age of 16, back in 1972.  He subsequently earned a ME degree from Georgia Institute of Technology in 1978 and an MBA from the University of Toledo in 1988.  Peter's experience includes over 30 years working specifically in machine design, industrial servo systems and the fluid power industry.

Karl Jungmann has worked in the testing industry as an engineer since 1968 at Schenck,  and later at MTS and Instron.  He received his MBA degree from Walsh College.  Karl has extensive knowledge of the industry in the design, manufacture and operation of nearly all  types of structural testing systems.

Dave Pienta is an entrepreneur who has established several successful companies serving the global marketplace.  Automatic Handling International is one of his companies with whom Dynamic Testing and Equipment shares resources and expertise.
