Hexagon AB, a provider of design, measurement and visualization technologies, has announced the acquisition of Vero Software, a provider of computer aided manufacturing (CAM) software.
Vero Software is a UK-based software company that aids the design and manufacturing process with products for programming and controlling machine tools, addressing the rising challenge of achieving manufacturing efficiencies with high-quality output.
Several well-known brands in Vero Software's portfolio include Alphacam, Cabinet Vision, Edgecam, Radan, SURFCAM, VISI and WorkNC. The company has large market coverage with offices in the UK, Germany, Italy, France, Japan, USA, Brazil, Netherlands, China, Korea, Spain and India supplying products to more than 45 countries through its wholly owned subsidiaries and reseller network.
"The acquisition strengthens Hexagon's software offerings, providing the means to close the gap of making quality data fully actionable by extending the reach of the newly developed MMS (metrology planning software) to include CAM (manufacturing planning software)," said a Hexagon spokesperson.
"Together with its unique suite of manufacturing software solutions, Vero Software has the expertise, knowledge and resources to deliver even higher levels of productivity to our customers," said Hexagon President and CEO Ola Rolln. "Leveraging our global footprint, the synergies from our combined technologies will advance our strategy, supporting the growing need to integrate all data and processes across the manufacturing lifecycle."
