APPLIED IMAGE, Inc. Transitions to New Ownership Effective January 1, 2022.

ROCHESTER, N.Y., Jan.12, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ --The ownership transition is a testament to the tremendous business created under company founder Bruno Glavich's leadership over the past 43 years. The company anticipates a seamless transition as the current team will continue to deliver the same excellent and reliable products and services they are known for worldwide.

"This is an exciting time to make this transition as optics, photonics, and imaging technologies have become ubiquitous in virtually every industry, and we can offer both standard and custom solutions for many of these applications," said Mr. Jackling. He went on to say, "We have attracted an experienced and talented workforce that wants to help build on Bruno's years of success as we transition our US-based company to new ownership. We look forward to continued growth and new opportunities."

Mr. Glavich began the company by providing essential OptoImaged products to the local Rochester community. Since then, APPLIED IMAGE has earned a reputation globally for its unique ability to create components and standards with unsurpassed quality and precision. Some of its best-known products are

• Barcode verifier and scanner test standards which ensure these devices are capable and calibrated,
• Flexible Encoders used in inkjet printers, and
• Test Targets & Test Patterns for image evaluation of cameras, scanners, and machine vision systems.

"A proud moment for the company was being selected by NASA to manufacture the camera systems' calibration targets used on two of the Mars Rovers and the International Space Station," recalled Mr. Glavich. Additionally, "Glenn's relentless focus on customer experience, product quality, and innovation makes him the ideal leader to guide the company into a new era while keeping it in Rochester – something I wanted," said Mr. Glavich.

Over the years, Mr. Jackling has been instrumental in updating the company's capabilities to more advanced manufacturing technologies and formalizing its quality systems with ISO 9001:2015 certification and becoming an ISO 17025:2017 accredited calibration lab. In this newly released video, Mr. Jackling and his team showcase some of the company's latest technology, quality processes, and operational procedures that support customer success.
