WIXOM, Mich., May 21, 2012 — On May 15, 2012, Acromag Inc., a market leader in defense and industrial electronics, acquired the assets of Xembedded, LLC. This purchase adds the products of Xembedded, LLC to Acromag’s portfolio, benefitting both groups by combining product lines. Customers will have the advantage of a complete product solution, ranging from embedded CPU products to I/O solutions.
“Xembedded products are known for high quality and technology. Their focus on VME, VPX, and COM Express platforms complements Acromag’s FPGA, PMC, XMC, and I/O technologies,” stated David Wolfe, President of Acromag. This move also extends production of the many legacy products that Xembedded, LLC is known for.
The new “Xembedded Group” will now join the Acromag “Embedded Solutions Group” and “Process Instrument Group.” By forming this new group, Acromag is able to provide uninterrupted service to former Xembedded, LLC customers. Along with the products, Acromag has hired all of the employees of Xembedded, LLC in order to maintain the expertise to design, manufacture, and support the many products in the “Xembedded Group” portfolio. The new Xembedded Group will also work to continue relationships with the many sales representatives and distributors that have sold Xembedded products for years.
Xembedded has developed embedded solutions for over three decades. Their processor and I/O VME boards are used in machine control, medical equipment, automotive, robots, scanning equipment, semi-conductor manufacturing, homeland security, military, industrial welders, power generation, and high-speed packaging applications. Xembedded hardware and software products have been installed in over 400,000 systems worldwide and in thousands of individual OEM applications.
Mr. Wolfe added, “Using the engineering resources of Acromag, I believe we can begin a new era for the Xembedded products with a combination of talent and people that are among the best in the industry.”
