WESTFORD, MA -- Zuken has acquired the tool-related intellectual property of electrical and electronics engineering specialist Intedis, the company announced today.
Terms were not disclosed.
The EDA software company simultaneously announced the E³.HarnessAnalyzer tool, based on an existing Intedis product, for viewing and analyzing harness drawings.
Zuken’s IP acquisition agreement with Intedis includes all product rights and the responsibility for its software development business and all related investment, maintenance and customer support.
In a press release, Zuken business director Automotive Reinhold Blank said, “Zuken is committed to supporting Intedis’ existing customers and tools. And we are excited about the opportunities this IP gives us as it perfectly complements Zuken’s powerful technology portfolio. It will help us continue to create solutions that offer substantial benefits for customers in the global automotive industry.”
The acquisition from Intedis adds to the resources of Zuken’s recently established global Automotive and Transportation Competence Center in Germany. It also includes products and technologies for wire harness engineering and electrical/electronic architecture tools.
Zuken said it plans to develop and integrate these modules into its product portfolio for electrical system design and engineering.
