Rockwell Automation, Inc. purchased the assets of SoftSwitching Technologies, a provider of industrial power quality detection and protection systems, located in Middleton, WI.
SoftSwitching Technologies’ solutions improve uptime in manufacturing production by identifying and correcting brief power disruptions (voltage sags). Typically, voltage sags can cause computerized machinery to go off line, precision instruments to fail and control systems to shut down. These problems can be extremely costly for customers, particularly those in the semiconductor, automotive, food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries.
