Bosch and Middlesex want to collaborate
The companies intend collaborate on cleanroom conveyor systems.
Bosch Rexroth and Middlesex Industries are planning joint sales activities for cleanroom conveyors based on Middlesex technology. Mutual supply with conveyor modules and components is intended as well as systems integration for projects in industries like semiconductors, hard disk drives, medical devices and photovoltaics.
Furthermore, both parties intend to co-operate on future development and manufacturing of the next generation automated material handling systems (AMHS), to provide complete source support of the semiconductor industry for 300mm prime and 450mm wafer fabs.
In August 2008 George Horn, President and CEO of Middlesex Industries SA and Dr.-Ing. Jörg Walther, Executive Vice President Linear Motion and Assembly Technologies, Bosch Rexroth AG, signed a corresponding memorandum of understanding. Subject to approval by the antitrust authorities both parties will conclude binding agreements within the next months.
With this agreement Middlesex and Rexroth will become one of the major suppliers of conveyor and hybrid AMHS technologies to the semiconductor industry. The agreement will also provide Middlesex the market opportunity to introduce its leading edge conveyor technology to a larger market currently serviced by Rexroth.
