A history of innovation    

HMS was founded in 1988 by Nicolas Hassbjer (HMS=Hassbjer MicroSystems). Originally started as a student project for measuring paper thickness, the company soon realized the need to connect their devices to different fieldbuses and industrial networks. Hence, they came up with the product "Anybus" - a network card that connects any device to any network.

After the first installations at three General Motors plants, the HMS expansion has continued at break-neck speed, today employing several hundered people internationally and being recognized as the leader in the field of communication technology for industrial automation.
