Headquartered in Villaz-St-Pierre (canton of Fribourg) with subsidiaries in the US and Japan, Asyril<\/a> is a market and technology leader in the flexible part feeder market. Its products are being used globally in assembly lines, facilitating process automation for a variety of industries.<\/p>\n

Asyril\u2019s product portfolio covers flexible feeding systems based on a patented 3-axis vibration technology complemented by the newly established EYE+ control system. The products enable a fast and optimal surface distribution of bulk parts and components during production processes.<\/p>\n

EYE+, a vision-based software, was in-house developed with the goal to drastically simplify the setting-up of the flexible part feeder process, underlying Asyril\u2019s development towards Industry 4.0 requirements, where software competence is key.<\/p>\n

capiton has acquired Asyril from the Nivalis Group incubator<\/a>. The financing of the transaction was provided by capiton\u2019s current investment vehicle, capiton VI. Additional funds have been reserved to finance both organic and inorganic growth initiatives. Sellers and buyers have agreed not to disclose the financial terms of the transaction.<\/p>\n

Together with Asyril\u2019s management team, capiton plans to grow the business organically, both by leveraging the significant potential of the company’s innovative product portfolio and by further expanding its international footprint. Acquisitions broadening the product range will be considered as well.<\/p>\n

A big step forward for Asyril<\/h4>\n

Dr. Alain Codourey, CEO and Co-Founder of Asyril commented: \u201cWith capiton, we were able to bring on board a partner, who, in addition to an international network, has an extensive understanding of our industry and experience in supporting fast-growing industrial technology companies. capiton’s investment means a big step forward for Asyril and together we will seek to further accelerate our growth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alexander Zamora, Partner at capiton added: \u201cThe automation and increasing connectivity of the industrial landscape is a core investment theme for our team, and we believe Asyril is at the forefront of enabling this transformation. With strong industry tailwinds, we believe Asyril has significant growth opportunities, and we look forward to supporting another founder- backed business to scale through investments in product innovation, commercial operations, and international expansion.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
