(WENZEL Group GmbH: Wiesthal, Germany) -- The acquisition of Steintek GmbH, located in Greding, Germany, by the WENZEL Group GmbH & Co. KG that was already announced at the Control exhibition in Stuttgart, Germany, this past May, has now been successfully concluded. The contracts for the 100 percent acquisition of Steintek were signed on July 31 in Wiesthal. Steintek will operate as an independent company inside WENZEL Group under the new name WENZEL ScanTec GmbH. 

The acquired Steintek GmbH is one of the technology leaders for high-speed measuring and digitizing systems.
