Large order for Anybus Gateways for Industrial Robots.

HMS Networks in Halmstad has today received an order for approx. 1 Million SEK for Anybus Gateways to connect to 100 industrial robots in a new car manufacturing line.

The order is for one of the leading robot manufacturers and will be delivered in full in quarter 1, 2008. The Anybus Gateway products works as a translator and will be used to connect the robot network to an existing network system in a car manufacturing factory.

HMS has two product categories: Embedded Products are network cards that are built-in to automation products and Gateways are used to translate between different networks in an automation system. Both product lines are based on HMS Anybus technology which consists of an own network chip and advanced software for different communication protocols.

• Our Gateway products, representing 25% of revenues, have large potential for integration of new equipment in existing automation systems. This can result in larger projects with short delivery time, as this one, says Nicolas Hassbjer, CEO of HMS.

HMS Networks AB (publ), listed on the OMX Nordic Exchange, will present the year-end report for 2007 on Thursday, February 14, 2008. For more information: investors.hms.se
