The acquisition of German Steintek GmbH (Greding, Germany) by the Wenzel Group GmbH & Co. KG, (Wiesthal, Germany), that was announced in May has been successfully concluded. The contracts for the 100 percent acquisition of Steintek were signed on the 31th of July in Wiesthal. Steintek will operate as an independent company inside Wenzel Group under the new name Wenzel ScanTec GmbH.

The taken over Steintek GmbH is one of the technology leaders for high speed measuring- and digitizing-systems. The technology is based on a white light distance sensor technology that is adapted for all types of surfaces and customized for the application areas in production. The systems detect and analyze even lowest defects and assure a fast feedback with fully customisable reports. The systems are mainly applied in measuring of complex parts e.g. turbine blades, blisk and implellers.

By the integration into Wenzel Group, Steintek GmbH is able to use the available capacity for development and the global distribution network of the Wenzel Group. Klaus Mühlberger, managing director of ScanTec GmbH, will continue in his position, commenting, ?we now have the opportunity to attain above average growth with our unique technology.? There are no changes for existing customers. All known contacts will remain in their current positions.
