New partner! Fordiewe announces completion of acquisition of electronic test and measurement solutions provider

Recently, Fortive announced the completion of the acquisition of Elektro-Automatik Holding GmbH (EA), strengthening the company's electronic test and measurement business strength in the Precision Technologies business platform.

EA is a company specializing in high-power electronic test solutions for applications including energy storage, mobility, hydrogen and renewable energy. EA's test and measurement products for engineers working in the global energy transition will complement Fordivi's Tektronix subsidiary, further enhancing Tektronix's portfolio of innovative products and services.

Approach EA: Power products with a wide range of applications

EA Elektro-Automatik is a well-known German laboratory power supply manufacturer. In 2022, EA will launch the 10000 series of enhanced and expanded series of programmable DC power products, including more than 180 new models, which can provide a wider range of power. The unique auto-ranging function allows test engineers to test more applications using a wider range of voltages and currents without the need for multiple power stage power supplies.

Approach EA: a development partner for forward-looking industries

EA has an extensive partner network around the world to provide customers with service and support. In 2011, a branch was established in China to provide pre-sales technical consultation, sales business services, product calibration and after-sales maintenance.

EA's growth in China's power market is concentrated in application scenarios where the company has established special technological advantages, such as traditional power battery technology, hydrogen fuel cells and renewable energy. EA's high-tech solutions, which combine high-quality German engineering technology with green operating capabilities, are ideal for promoting the rapid growth of China's forward-looking industries.

Approaching EA: Adding highly synergistic additions to Tektronix product line

James A. Lico, President and Chief Executive Officer of Foodway, said:
