Omron Signs Agreement to Acquire OnLogic, Expanding Industrial Computing and Edge Capabilities
October 13, 2026
Acquisition brings together industrial automation and edge processing to help customers address data and AI-intensive applications
OMRON Corporation (TSE: 6645) (www.omron.com), a global leader in industrial automation and control technology, and OnLogic (www.onlogic.com), a premier global innovator in industrial and rugged edge computing solutions, announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement pursuant to which OMRON will acquire OnLogic, on October 12, 2026.
Manufacturers are increasingly using data and AI-enabled compute at the industrial edge, driving demand for reliable computing power that works alongside real-time automation and control. By combining OnLogic’s industrial computing expertise with OMRON’s proven automation solutions, the two companies can help customers address increasingly complex applications that require greater processing power, connectivity and intelligence at the edge.
OMRON brings deep expertise in sensing, control, motion, robotics and safety. OnLogic adds highly configurable industrial computing platforms designed for demanding applications and environments, along with a flexible build-to-order model and broad customer reach across manufacturing and other industrial markets.
Together, the two companies see opportunities to more closely connect machine data, edge computing and AI with real-time automation and control. Over time, the combination is expected to create opportunities for new solutions that help manufacturers turn data, insights, and AI into faster, more informed actions to optimize manufacturing.
The acquisition is an important growth investment in OMRON’s Industrial Automation Business and also strengthens the company’s position in the Americas and Europe. OnLogic brings relationships with customers across both traditional automation markets and industries where OMRON sees additional opportunities for growth.
“This acquisition is an important step in advancing our SF2030 vision and our evolution toward GEMBA DX. North America is a key growth market for OMRON, and this investment strengthens our foundation there while building the capabilities our customers will increasingly need,” said Junta Tsujinaga, President and CEO of OMRON Corporation. “OnLogic’s industrial computing expertise, flexibility and strong customer relationships complement our strengths in automation and control. Together, we see an opportunity to create new value for customers as manufacturing becomes more connected, data-driven and intelligent.”
For OnLogic, joining OMRON provides access to greater global scale, industrial automation expertise and additional opportunities to expand into new markets, while preserving the capabilities, culture and customer-focused business model that have driven its growth.
“We built OnLogic to help engineers and innovators solve tough technology challenges by making custom, rugged hardware easy to configure, build, and deploy,” said Sean Larkin, CEO of OnLogic. “Joining OMRON provides the global scale, supply chain depth, and capital resources to accelerate our product roadmaps while preserving our culture, direct sales approach, and operations around the world. Together, we are giving our customers the tools they need to deploy physical AI with confidence.”
Following the acquisition, OnLogic will continue to operate as an independent business within the OMRON Group, maintaining its global headquarters in South Burlington, Vermont, alongside its full network of global offices, brand identity, and direct sales model. Its current management team, led by CEO Sean Larkin, will remain in place to drive day-to-day operations and strategic growth.
OMRON remains committed to its established channel strategy and will continue to invest in and support the partners that are critical to serving customers and driving growth in the market.
The acquisition is expected to close in or around January 2027, subject to regulatory approval.
