About Us

Our Goal

For over 30 years, we have been specializing in magnetics, vibratory feeders and metal detection applications, along with dedusting, size reduction, container loading and unloading, pneumatic conveying and environmental pollution control with cyclone and filtration systems.

Approtec Ran-Le has over 100 years of in-house experience working with customers to provide engineered and technical solutions. We pride ourselves in working with you, in your plants to develop successful long term relationships.

Supported by U.S. based manufacturing, our principles provide systems, components and replacement parts and state-of-the-art test facilities.

Providing Solutions

Our success is based on understanding our customers’ needs. That’s it. We make it our business to be involved from concept to completion and provide the best solutions available.  With in-house engineering capabilities, we strive to make it easy for our customers to do business with Approtec Ran-Le.

30 Years of Success, Continues

May 1, 2010 brought around the succession plan 5 years in the making.

After 15 years in the material handling industry, Tony Kniffen and Brian Vandenberg are now owners of Approtec Ran-Le.

With the new ownership, most things are unchanged, and most importantly, we are going to continue to strive to work hard, focus, and communicate with our customers and principles to continue and strengthen our relationships.

In 2007 the merger of Approtec and Ran-Le combined our offices with John Lewis in the San Antonio area, and in Dallas with Jim Treske and Scott Treske. Together as team, we continue our tradition of providing solutions and service to our customers.
