Plasma, waterjet and laser cutting system manufacturer Hypertherm (Hanover, New Hampshire) has acquired Jabez Technologies (St. Laurent, Canada), creators of software for simplifying complex robot programming.
“A growing trend toward lean and flexible manufacturing is resulting in the expanded use of robotics in our served industries,” says Evan Smith, Hypertherm president and CEO. “Adding Jabez to the Hypertherm team will enable Hypertherm to bring even greater value to our robotic customers, and at the same time provide Jabez with the support and resources to achieve its wider vision, which we share.”
Hypertherm is not making any major changes to Jabez’s operations, leadership structure, or distribution channels, and no consolidations or reductions are planned.
