Teledyne Technologies and Roper Technologies jointly announced on Tuesday the successful completion of the previously announced acquisition by Teledyne of the Scientific Imaging businesses of Roper for $225 million in cash. The Scientific Imaging businesses include Princeton Instruments, Photometrics and Lumenera, as well as other brands.
The Scientific Imaging businesses provide a range of imaging solutions, primarily for life sciences, academic research and customized OEM industrial imaging solutions.
