Bosch Rexroth to Acquire Elmo Motion Control
博世力士樂收購Elmo運動控制公司
Elmo Motion Control and Bosch Rexroth (owned by Bosch Group) have signed a merger agreement in which Bosch Rexroth acquires Elmo’s entire activities, assets and staff. The purchase price was not disclosed, but the Israeli newspaper Calcalist mentioned a tag price of $700 million for the deal. The transaction is subject to antitrust approvals. Elmo Motion Control is based on Petach-Tikva, near Tel Aviv. It develops and produces electrical high-end servo drives and motion controls for industrial automation.
Elmo運動控制公司和博世力士樂公司(隸屬于博世集團)簽署了一項合并協議,博世力士樂公司收購Elmo公司的全部活動、資產和員工。收購價格沒有披露,但以色列報紙Calcalist表示該交易的標價為7億美元。該交易須經反壟斷批準。Elmo運動控制公司的總部設在特拉維夫附近的佩塔提科瓦(Petach-Tikva),致力于開發和生產適用于工業自動化領域的電氣高端伺服驅動器和運動控件。
Elmo is planned to remain as an Israel entity, with local management and retaining the current staff of 330 employees. Bosch said its intentions are to enhance Elmo’s capabilities of developing and manufacturing the most advanced motion and servo control products. “There is continuously growing demand for smart automation and Industry 4.0 solutions,” said Thomas Fechner, Head of the Bosch Rexroth Automation and Electrification Solutions Business Unit. “We are strengthening our portfolio both organically and through acquisitions.”
Elmo公司計劃繼續作為一個以色列實體,采用本地化管理,并保留現有的330名員工。博世表示,其意圖是加強Elmo公司開發和制造最先進的運動和伺服控制產品的能力。博世力士樂自動化和電氣化解決方案業務部負責人Thomas Fechner表示:“市場對智能自動化和工業4.0解決方案的需求與日俱增,我們正在通過有機方式以及收購來加強我們的產品組合。”
“Factory automation is a clear focus topic at Bosch Rexroth. Elmo’s technology enables us to integrate drives the size of a smartphone into robots or autonomous transport vehicles, for example,” says Fechner. “Elmo technologies thus open up new fields of application that pose special technological challenges, such as autonomous transport vehicles, service robotics, or the decentralized arrangement of drives in machines.”
“毫無疑問,工廠自動化是博世力士樂的一個發展重點。Elmo的技術使我們能夠將智能手機大小的驅動器集成到機器人或自動運輸車輛中。”Fechner說,“因此,Elmo技術開辟了新的應用領域,可以應對特殊的技術挑戰,比如自動運輸車輛、服務機器人或機器驅動器的分散配置。”
Elmo Motion Control specializes in sophisticated, yet compact servo drives and motion control for advanced machines in the segments semiconductor, electronic manufacturing, electrical industry, robotics, medical, automated guided vehicles (AGV), automatic warehousing, and the packaging and food industry. Elmo was founded in 1988 by the CEO and owner Haim Monhait. In addition to the main location in Israel, the company maintains an assembly site in Poland.
