The privately-owned company based in Oberursel, Hesse, has been designing, developing and manufacturing high-precision power measurement equipment for four decades.
The family-owned company in Hesse with around sixty employees will be fully integrated into the Rohde & Schwarz group. The location will be retained and will continue to be used for power measurement equipment.
For Christina Geßner, Executive Vice President Test & Measurement Division, the acquisition is an important next step that contributes to the sustainable growth strategy of the global technology group: “Both Rohde & Schwarz and ZES ZIMMER Electronic Systems GmbH are privately owned companies with a long tradition. A passion for technology and innovation has always been in the DNA of both our companies. The acquisition will further strengthen our position as a relevant and reliable technology partner for our customers in the field of power measurements, create synergies and generate further growth.”
ZES ZIMMER Electronic Systems has been an established name in the power measurement market for more than 40 years and not only has a broad customer base but also a strong sales network. The company’s exceptionally strong product portfolio supports a wide range of industry-leading use cases and applications, particularly in the electromobility, industrial electronics and renewable energy sectors.
The future consolidation and bundling of expertise and portfolios represent a significant expansion of the Test & Measurement Division’s existing offering in the field of power electronics.
The takeover of ZES ZIMMER Electronic Systems GmbH into the Rohde & Schwarz group is an important building block in the long-term growth strategy. At the same time, Rohde & Schwarz is expanding its development capacity with the acquisition and strengthening Germany as an industrial and technological powerhouse.
