Seidenader's former SAC - Software and Automation Center GmbH and Optima's Autocon have merged in Seidenader Automation GmbH & Co. KG.
The merger puts the new company in an excellent position to support line management solutions (SCADA), operator interface software and track & trace systems.

"Joining forces will allow us to establish many of our products as an industry standard," a company spokesman said. "The proximity to our OEM customers permits us to react quicker and to develop more customized solutions with them and their customers in the pharmaceutical industry. With almost 50 employees we have the critical mass to support the solutions locally, but also on a worldwide basis."
