Microscan Acquires Label Vision Systems

Microscan Systems, a company specializing in industrial barcode reading and machine vision technology, announced that it has acquired the trade and assets of Label Vision Systems (LVS). LVS will be fully integrated into Microscan and the LVS name will become a brand within Microscan’s barcode label verification portfolio.

LVS is a provider of label inspection, print inspection, and barcode verification products, solutions, and services for the life sciences and other industries. The company’s offerings allow companies to inspect barcodes either off-line or in-line to achieve 100% compliance to unique device identification (UDI) legislation and GS1 standards, as well as to improve product traceability throughout the manufacturing supply chain.

Scott Summerville, president of Microscan, commented in a press statement that the acquisition is a strategic move for Microscan. “There are many advantages to acquiring the trade and assets of LVS. The leadership team at Microscan has a strong interest in developing and investing in LVS’s technology and products to support the market, which is expanding due to regulatory trends and corporate quality initiatives. We will have the opportunity to accelerate the expansion of LVS products and solutions into key international markets, and to leverage the substantial synergies between LVS and Microscan sales, technology, and operations.”
