DN Solutions has successfully completed its acquisition of HELLER Group, a German high-end premium machine tool specialist.
DN Solutions announced Monday that it acquired 100% of HELLER's shares for approximately 324.3 billion won ($227 million). The acquisition received regulatory approval from authorities in Germany, the United States, the United Kingdom and other relevant countries.
HELLER possesses world-class technology in machining centers specialized for highly sophisticated ultra-precision processes, DN Solutions explained. The company plans to strengthen its product lineup by securing HELLER's machining center technology accumulated over approximately 130 years and solidify its position as a high-end premium brand in the global machine tool market.
DN Solutions will also leverage HELLER Group to expand its global network. HELLER Group has established a stable supply chain centered on five production bases across Europe, Asia and the Americas. DN Solutions plans to continue strategic investments in HELLER Group's major overseas production facilities, including Nürtingen, to maximize product competitiveness and customer support capabilities.
The acquisition is expected to expand DN Solutions' consolidated revenue to approximately 3 trillion won. This represents an increase of more than 40% compared to consolidated revenue of 2.1 trillion won in 2024.
DN Solutions plans to establish a clear roadmap for joint development and innovation across the value chains of both companies, while also pursuing synergies in research and development, marketing, service and production. The Seoul International Manufacturing Technology Show (SIMTOS 2026), to be held in Seoul in April, is expected to be the first official event featuring DN Solutions and HELLER Group together.
"This acquisition marks an innovative turning point as both companies move toward a new future together," said Kim Won-jong, CEO of DN Solutions. "We will combine our strengths to solidify our position as a leader shaping the global manufacturing market."
Thorsten Schmidt, CEO of HELLER Group, said: "By bringing together our broad product portfolio, deep expertise and innovation capabilities, we will establish ourselves as the premium partner of choice in technically demanding key industrial sectors."
