OUTOTEC OYJ PRESS RELEASE MARCH 19, 2013 at 11:30 AM
Outotec completes the acquisition of Scanalyse in Australia
Outotec has successfully completed the acquisition of an Australian-based
Scanalyse Holdings Pty Ltd. Scanalyse is a software technology company that
provides services in process equipment condition and performance monitoring. The
transaction was announced on February 28, 2013. The acquisition price was not
disclosed.
Scanalyse has developed proprietary computer analysis of spatial laser scan
data. This analysis is used for process equipment condition and performance
monitoring, and it has quickly gained acceptance in the minerals processing
industry in Australia and other mining countries. Scanalyse has 36 employees,
with sales of some few million euros in 2012. Outotec expects to significantly
increase the sales of these products worldwide.
"Scanalyse is an innovative young company specializing in measurement
software
development. Its condition and performance monitoring technologies and services
are a valuable addition to Outotec's life cycle services portfolio. By combining
the expertise of Scanalyse and Outotec we can offer new value added services to
our common customer base. There are good opportunities to multiply the business
volume of grinding mill and crusher monitoring services and to further develop
applications for other process equipment, e.g. refractory lined vessels", says
Outotec CEO Pertti Korhonen.
