October 3, 2025 – A long-standing name in the American machine vision sector, Phase 1 Technology, has officially transitioned into STEMMER IMAGING USA, marking a significant milestone in the global imaging group’s expansion strategy.
The move integrates Phase 1’s established US operations, distribution network, and engineering expertise into STEMMER IMAGING’s wider European and international business, offering North American customers access to a broader portfolio of imaging components, cameras, lenses, lighting, and software.
A Strategic Step for Global Reach
This transition follows STEMMER IMAGING’s continued effort to unify its global brand and streamline regional operations. By incorporating Phase 1’s long-standing customer base and technical knowledge, the company aims to create a single, integrated channel for vision products and system support across major industrial markets.
“Bringing Phase 1 into the STEMMER IMAGING family allows us to serve customers in North America with the same depth of technology and engineering resources that have defined our business in Europe,” said a spokesperson from STEMMER IMAGING.
The US arm will now directly offer STEMMER IMAGING’s extensive catalog of industrial cameras, optics, cabling, software, and imaging subsystems — as well as technical support from global specialists in automotive, electronics, logistics, and life sciences.
Why It Matters
The integration signals a growing trend toward consolidation in the machine vision industry, where customers are seeking global suppliers capable of providing complete imaging solutions rather than isolated components.
For US integrators and OEMs, this means improved access to European-developed technologies and simplified supply chains. For STEMMER IMAGING, it strengthens their position in one of the world’s largest markets for industrial automation and embedded vision.
