OPT Machine Vision, a global provider of components for machine vision with a focus on LED illuminations, LED controllers, lenses, industrial PCs, software libraries, and accessories, has chosen Germany for its first European base.

The Chinese company told MVPro that it is strengthening its position as a globally active provider of innovative high-performance products and services for the industry.

From its new locations in Berlin (which includes the building of a R&D centre) and Stuttgart, OPT Machine Vision GmbH plans to offer its customers in Europe more intensive consulting and far-reaching support in the development of specific machine vision applications.

“Our competent team is well positioned,” says the Managing Director, Sean Wang. “We have brought experienced Machine Vision experts into the team, who advise our customers individually with great expertise and detailed knowledge of the industry. Furthermore, we are also hiring for Technical Sales and Technical Support/FAE positions in EMEA.”

By founding OPT Machine Vision GmbH, OPT said it was giving further positive impetus to its growth in Germany and EMEA.
