MUNICH – Siemens Electronics Assembly Systems became operational Jan. 1 as a legally separate company within the Siemens technology conglomerate.
 
This step signaled the end of the so-called “carve-out process,” begun in 2008, the firm reports. The new company handles the Siplace placement machines and related assembly equipment lines.
 
In addition, the company’s restructuring program is entering a second phase. Plans call for further streamlining of the company’s global processes, and consolidation of its development and manufacturing capacities. The firm did not provide further details.
