Electro Arc's former location in Ann Arbor
In 2019 Stillion Industries obtained Electro Arc Manufacturing co. which had been operating in the Ann Arbor area since the 1940s.

Electro Arc manufacturing has a history of providing their portable metal disintegrators for use in submarines by the US Navy. Electro Arc metal disintegrators are made in the USA and have been sold internationally to assist customers in removing broken bolts, broken taps, broken drills, broken pins and more from their work pieces.
