Mettler Toledo aquires Smiths Detection Product Inspection division
Mettler-Toledo has acquired the Smiths Detection Product Inspection division and will adopt the well-known Eagle brand of food x-ray inspection systems.
Well-known for its expert inspection products since 1998, the Eagle business will continue to operate as a separate entity using existing sales and service channels.
With this strategic business expansion, Eagle customers will benefit from a strengthening of service and support through a larger network of service technicians and application support.
Additionally, Eagle is now part of Mettler-Toledo’s Product Inspection division, which is focused on helping food manufacturers meet their inspection requirements.
With this acquisition, Mettler-Toledo is increasing its commitment to the food x-ray business, which will drive additional strategic investments in technology and application development.
