Company Overview

VST America Inc. is the North American sales and customer-service subsidiary of VS Technology Corporation (Kabushiki Gaisha V.S.Technology), a Japanese optical manufacturer headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo. The parent company was established in December 1997 and has grown into a global supplier of machine vision optics. VST America Inc. was incorporated in April 2012 to strengthen sales and customer support across North and South America, with headquarters at 85 W.
