Somatec Strengthens Its Market Position Through the Acquisition of ATH and Expands Its Technology Portfolio

We at Somatec are delighted to announce the acquisition of ATH. Both long established companies will continue to operate in their current form on the market and will complement each other even more effectively through this strategic step in the future. In doing so, we are strengthening our shared location in Hameln and creating excellent prospects for everyone involved.

With ATH, we are not integrating an unfamiliar company into our structures, but rather deepening an already exceptionally trusting relationship. For around thirty years now, ATH’s dedicated team has stood by our side as an absolutely reliable partner.

This long and successful history forms an exceptionally stable foundation for our continued growth together in the years ahead.

Combined Expertise in Winding Technology

Through this merger, we are bringing together our extensive partnership in winding technology and control engineering at an entirely new level. We are now able to integrate our high quality machines even more closely and directly with the right automation technology. The result is highly advanced and efficient custom built systems tailored to the individual needs of our customers.

At Somatec, we benefit directly from ATH’s outstanding expertise in every area of modern electrical engineering. The seamless integration of mechanical design and intelligent control technology enables us as a team to significantly shorten important innovation cycles. As a result, our customers around the world receive forward looking complete solutions at the very highest technical standard.

Attractive Retrofit Solutions for Industry

We see a particularly promising area of growth in the modernization of existing systems for comparable companies in the industrial market environment. Thanks to the new structures, we are now ideally positioned to offer tailor made retrofits from a single source. These modernization measures significantly increase the productivity of older machines and represent an economically highly attractive alternative to purchasing new equipment.

In these complex and integrated projects, our respective specialist areas work together perfectly. At Somatec, we are responsible for the complete mechanical design and overhaul of the systems. In turn, ATH takes over the full renewal of the electrical systems as well as the control technology.

This creates a seamless process full of synergies that continuously guarantees the highest quality and maximum reliability for our customers and for those who will become our customers in the future.
