Variohm Group expands with the acquisition of displacement sensor specialist Positek
(PresseBox) - Gloucester-based Positek Limited - the leading sensor manufacturer has recently been acquired by The Variohm Group. The world-wide supplier of linear, rotary, tilt and intrinsically safe position sensors becomes the fifth member of the expanding Variohm Group; joining Variohm EuroSensor - sensor and transducer supplier and manufacturer along with Herga Technology for switching and sensing solutions, Ixthus Instrumentation for specialist measurement systems, and Heason Technology for motion control components and systems.
Positek Limited will bring its highly specialised linear and rotary voltage displacement sensor technologies (LVDT/RVDT) and customised design expertise to the Variohm Group as well as expand the overall production and customer support capability; taking the Group head count over 190, including 20 engineering staff operating across Europe from four UK production sites and with world-wide distribution in major industrial markets.
