LumaSense Technologies, provider of sensing solutions, has acquired Mikron Infrared, a leader in the field of infrared non-contact temperature measurement and thermal imaging.
LumaSense Technologies, a leading provider of sensing solutions, announced it has closed the acquisition of Mikron Infrared, a leader in the field of infrared non-contact temperature measurement and thermal imaging since 1969.
"We are excited to have closed the acquisition successfully," said Vivek Joshi, CEO of LumaSense Technologies.
"This acquisition significantly expands LumaSense's solutions portfolio as we grow our business in the clean technology, energy and medical markets.
The addition of Mikron further enables LumaSense to address an industry that is demanding better quality solutions, comprehensive global service and support and the highest levels of price for performance".
Mikron represents the fourth acquisition LumaSense has made since 2005.

"Mikron's acquisition by LumaSense provides a unique opportunity to be part of a broader- based sensor technology focused organisation," said Gerry Posner, President and CEO of Mikron.
"The similarities of our distribution channels, coupled with the complementary nature of our product portfolios will be a great asset as we grow our business".
