Ensco has acquired rail infrastructure inspection system provider KLD Labs through an equity purchase transaction.
The two companies will combine their technology platforms and engineering services to help customers inspect train tracks and vehicles, Ensco said Tuesday.
Hauppauge, New York-based KLD offers digital tools to support automated management, repair and maintenance of railway assets.
Jeff Stevens, president of Ensco, said the combined company aims to pave the way for railway operations efficiency and safety by offering a “comprehensive condition assessment technology suite.”
The integrated portfolio will be on display at the Wheel Rail Interaction Conference, scheduled to take place from June 6 to 9 in Minneapolis.
