Baumer Merges Divisions to Pursue Motion Control

Watch for Baumer Ltd. (www.baumerelectric.com/usa), Southington, Conn., to make a new marketing push in the United States following the recent merger of four existing, independent divisions by its Swiss-based parent into a newly created entity focusing entirely on motion control solutions.

The Baumer Group, based in Frauenfeld, Switzerland, is a worldwide supplier of sensor solutions, motion control equipment, vision technologies and process instrumentation.

As a result of the merger, Baumer Motion Control becomes the single source international supplier of a broad line of motion products and technologies from Baumer, Baumer Hübner, Baumer IVO, and Baumer Thalheim. Baumer Motion Control now ranks among the world’s largest suppliers of motion products, the company said.

Products offered by the new Baumer Motion Control division will include incremental and absolute encoders, magnetic encoders, intelligent compact drives for actuators and positioning systems, heavy duty encoders, heavy duty tachogenerators, absolute encoders with fieldbus interfaces, mechanical and electronic counters and tachometers, electronic shaft positioning systems with absolute sensing, compact incremental encoders, ultra-precise encoders with sine output signals, and incremental encoders with large hollow shaft diameters.
