Bourns takes Murata Manufacturing’s trimming potentiometers onboard
Bourns which claims trimming potentiometers as the company’s own invention 60 years ago, trademarked Trimpot®, has continually increased the number of physical configurations available and the ability of its Trimpot® products to withstand manufacturing environment demands.
By acquiring Murata’s trimming potentiometer business, the company hopes to benefit from two significant strategic advantages, a stronger competitive position particularly in Asia, and additional depth to Bourns’ Trimpot® product line.
“The Bourns transition team is working closely with Murata to ensure continuity, seamless product availability and the highest level of customer service,” explained Hans van Delft, Vice President and General Manager of the Bourns Industrial Division. “Leading this transition, I want to personally assure both Murata’s and Bourns’ customers that Bourns will continue the same industry-leading product performance, quality and reliability they have grown to trust.”
