Trumpf group expands through acquisition

Huettinger Elektronik is a global leader in the manufacture of power supplies for plasma processes, induction heating and laser excitation. The new subsidiary will operate under the name Huettinger Electronic Sp. z o.o. and will remain in the same location. All 156 current employees will retain their positions. Through its Huettinger subsidiary, the Trumpf Group is a major supplier of components critical to the manufacture of high technology products such as semi-conductors, flat panel displays, DVDs and solar cells. The company’s products deliver the energy required for depositing thin film coatings on surfaces such as architectural glass and premium industrial components. Advanced Converters’ power supplies for DC plasma processes are also used for vacuum deposition and removal of materials and are, thus, complimentary. "With Advanced Converters, we are strengthening our DC generator business field and expanding our leading position in plasma excitation. At the same time we are setting the stage for even faster growth in the future," says Huettinger managing director Dr. Dieter Pauschinger.
