NELA Acquires OMCS Optical Measurement

In an asset deal, NELA Brüder Neumeister, Lahr/Germany, acquires the entire product range of OMCS Optical Measurement, Dessau/Germany. NELA is the largest supplier worldwide of optical register systems for offset printing plates and corresponding plate automation systems. OMCS is a leader in the field of optical surface inspection systems for the industrial examination of rubber, polymer and ceramic parts. “This acquisition is a strategic move and it combines the latest and most powerful technologies in an ideal way with our expertise in the field of optical inspection systems,” states President Frank Neumeister. The automated and touch-less inspection of mass parts and composite materials offers many business opportunities as industry requirements for precise, gapless and fully automated inspection of entire batches are quite considerable.
