The companies have entered into a global distribution agreement that will see Rutronik distributing HMS' flexible solutions for connecting devices and systems to all common industrial networks.
HNS described itself as a technology partner offering turnkey communication solutions to users, saving them money in terms of development costs and allows them to benefit from a shorter time to market.
“The global presence of Rutronik, the access to the market as well as the technical know-how of the product marketing and FAE teams make it the ideal partner to successfully develop the market leadership of HMS further,” commented Thilo Döring, General Manager at HMS.
According to Mario Klug, Senior Manager Product Marketing Boards at Rutronik: “By partnering with HMS, we are expanding our product portfolio to include multiprotocol solutions for industrial communication – on the one hand, in the embedded PC card segment, and on the other hand, in the microcontroller segment with the high-performance Anybus NP40 multi-network processor.”
