1) Ralliant carries a 150-year precision-technology heritage — how do you modernize that legacy without losing what makes it enduring?

Ralliant’s legacy has always been rooted in precision and engineering discipline — and that foundation continues to guide how we evolve. What has changed is the scope of how precision is applied. Instead of focusing on standalone instruments, we are enabling a more integrated, system-level approach that connects measurement, sensing, motion, and power reliability. That helps customers reduce uncertainty in environments where a single micro‑fluctuation in power or a nanometer of motion drift can translate into real yield and uptime impact. So modernization, for us, is about extending the legacy: helping engineers move from measurement to decision faster and with greater operational confidence.

2) What do you see as the biggest technology trend shaping the test and measurement industry over the next five years?

Citing the semiconductor industry, especially following our participation at SEMICON Southeast Asia 2026, one clear trend is the shift from optimizing individual tools to managing highly interdependent systems across the semiconductor value chain. As devices become smaller and more advanced — and demand from AI and high‑performance computing accelerates — manufacturing environments are becoming more complex and tightly coupled. This is where Ralliant’s integrated portfolio matters. Across precision DC and AC characterization, process control, motion control, and energy resilience and reliability, our operating companies such as Tektronix, Gems Setra, Dover Motion, and Qualitrol help deliver real‑time visibility and control across multiple parameters. That system‑level coordination supports more predictable outcomes that directly affect yield stability, scalability, and efficiency.

‍

3) AI is evolving incredibly fast — how do you see it changing the way semiconductor manufacturers operate, and where does Ralliant fit into that picture?

AI is raising both performance requirements and the complexity of semiconductor manufacturing. As chips become more advanced, even very small variations in power stability, signal quality, or mechanical precision can have a significant impact on yield and performance. Ralliant supports customers at this precision layer — helping stabilize the fundamentals that AI-driven systems depend on. Through our operating companies, we contribute across the lifecycle: device level measurement and signal characterization, stable process control in fabrication environments, nanometer scale motion and alignment, and reliable power monitoring for critical infrastructure. By reducing uncertainty and variability across these domains, we help manufacturers scale with predictability and confidence.

4) The demand for chips is exploding, driven by AI, EVs, and smart devices. Is Southeast Asia ready for that level of growth, and what still needs to happen?

Southeast Asia is gaining strong momentum as global supply chains diversify. The region is moving beyond a traditional backend base toward a more integrated semiconductor and digital infrastructure hub, with investments in assembly, testing, advanced packaging, and increasingly AI data centers. At the same time, infrastructure maturity and ecosystem depth vary across markets, which can make it more challenging to maintain consistent quality and yield at scale. What needs to happen next is stronger system level coordination and precision infrastructure — improving measurement accuracy, stabilizing process environments, and ensuring reliable power and operating conditions. We support customers by enabling these capabilities so they can scale growth while protecting yield stability and operational confidence.

5) What does it take to successfully localize a multinational strategy for Asian markets, where business culture and customer expectations can vary so widely?

We put customers at the center of everything we do. Each market operates under different conditions — infrastructure, ecosystem maturity, and operational requirements — so we need to be close to customers and understand their realities on the ground. Our approach is to maintain a consistent precision technology backbone while adapting how it is applied locally, based on real customer needs. That means spending time at the Gemba, listening directly, understanding where variability and constraints exist, and working alongside customers to solve problems. By aligning solutions to local operating environments and priorities, we help deliver more consistent performance and yield across locations while unlocking growth opportunities together.

6) How do you approach business ecosystem building — and how important is that to Ralliant's growth model in APAC?

Ecosystem building has become central to how the industry operates. It’s no longer about optimizing individual processes, but about managing interconnected systems across the value chain. Our role is to provide a unified precision foundation that connects measurement, sensing, motion, and energy reliability — enabling accurate characterization, stable process control, precise motion in advanced steps, and reliable power infrastructure that supports uptime. This system-level integration improves coordination across processes and reduces variability that can directly impact yield and performance. Equally important, ecosystem building is about how we work: staying close to customers and partners on the ground, understanding real operating constraints, and aligning solutions to the way systems interact in production.

‍

7) How is Ralliant integrating trends like AI, digitalization, and Industry 4.0 into its precision technology solutions for APAC customers?

We integrate AI, digitalization, and Industry 4.0 by focusing on connected precision systems — not standalone digital features. In practice, that means bringing together capabilities across characterization, process control, motion, and energy resilience into a more coordinated portfolio that helps customers manage complexity across the workflow.

For example, the Keithley 4200A‑SCS Parameter Analyzer can reduce the time from setup to characterization decision by up to 50%, while Tektronix 7 Series DPO Digital Phosphor Oscilloscope capture ever smaller, high‑speed signals with lower noise so validation does not become a bottleneck during expensive debug cycles.

In fabs, Setra’s ultra‑high purity pressure and vacuum measurement solutions and Gems flow monitoring help maintain stable, contamination‑free processes.

For advanced alignment, Dover Motion’s 6DOF direct‑drive stages deliver 5 nm linear resolution with a programmable Virtual Center of Rotation.

And for infrastructure reliability, Qualitrol provides early fault detection and diagnostics across critical electrical assets — while Tektronix EA‑PSB bidirectional power supplies can return energy to the grid at greater than 96% efficiency, reducing facility thermal load.

By connecting these capabilities, customers gain real‑time control and predictive visibility to shorten cycles, reduce variability, and make faster, more confident decisions.

8) How does Ralliant support Singapore's push to become a leading hub for advanced manufacturing and digital infrastructure?

Singapore’s ambition in advanced manufacturing and digital infrastructure is closely tied to electrification and digitalization, where performance, efficiency, and reliability are becoming increasingly critical. In this environment, precision is essential to trusted performance across physical and digital systems. Ralliant supports this transformation by bringing together precision technologies across our operating companies — engineering accuracy, reliability, and safety in areas where the stakes are highest, from advanced manufacturing to power infrastructure and data centers. In a market with constraints on space, energy, and resources, reliability and efficiency are key differentiators. By helping customers reduce variability, improve uptime, and optimize performance per watt and per footprint, we enable them to scale with greater confidence.

9) Data centers and semiconductor fabs are putting huge pressure on power grids. How does Ralliant help keep that infrastructure reliable?

As AI data centers and semiconductor fabs expand, the need for stable and reliable power infrastructure is increasing significantly. Even small fluctuations can lead to instability, downtime, or yield loss in highly sensitive environments. Qualitrol offers a comprehensive portfolio of sensors, monitors, software, and analytics for transformers, circuit breakers, gas insulated switchgear, and generators to provide early fault detection and advanced diagnostics. By improving visibility into asset health and enabling earlier intervention, we help utilities and operators maintain continuity, protect uptime, and reduce the risk of disruptive failures.

‍

10) What's the one trend that you think the industry is underestimating right now — something that will matter a lot more than people realize?

One trend that deserves even greater emphasis is the growing importance of precision infrastructure itself. As semiconductor and AI systems operate closer to physical limits, small uncertainties in measurement, motion, process stability, or power reliability can create meaningful business impact — including lower yield, longer validation cycles, and higher energy consumption. In that context, precision is becoming a defining enabler of scalability and competitiveness. Companies that can better manage variability and maintain stable, repeatable performance at scale will be better positioned for the industry’s next phase.
