APELC is the world leader in the development of compact Marx generators (our basis technology). We offer a very wide spectrum of Marx generators, with pulse energies from mJ to kJ, peak voltages from kVs to MVs, and volumes from hand-held to benchtop-sized.

Our generators are optimized in their performance and design for portability.
