Balluff grows by external means

The Balluff group, specialists in sensors and automation, has extended its own digital knowhow with the purchase of two companies: the ISS innovative software services GmbH (Stoccarda) and Matrix Vision GmbH (Oppenweiler).

These additions, that increase Balluff’s expertise in two key sectors (software development and vision systems), represent a fundamental element in the strategic alignment of the Group and were defined between July and August, after around six months of negotiations. Hence 160 employees will join the family run concern, but the respective headquarters will be maintained.
