what happened

Nordson Corporation said it has completed the acquisition of Contrinex, a Swiss maker of high-performance sensors used in factory automation. The company is based in Corminboeuf and generates roughly $50 million in annual revenue, with nearly 500 employees.

According to Nordson, Contrinex's sensors will complement its test and inspection portfolio and strengthen its focus on automation. Contrinex will be folded into the Advanced Technology Solutions segment. The purchase price was not disclosed in the announcement.

why it matters

The deal is small relative to Nordson, so it is unlikely to move the company's shares much. For the broader market it is another sign of demand for sensing technology used in factories and machine control. Financial effects will depend on whether a price and synergy targets are later disclosed.
