Kurago becomes Bystronic Software: a new chapter in digital transformation
Bystronic has completed the full integration of Kurago, the Spanish software company acquired in 2021. From now on, the company will operate under the name Bystronic Software, unifying all software development activities within the Bystronic brand.
This rebranding marks a significant milestone in Bystronic’s digital journey. Over the past years, Kurago has led the Group’s digitalization efforts, from machine software to customer-centric digital platforms, and will now continue to shape Bystronic’s future as part of the Systems Division. With Bystronic Software, the Group is strengthening its role as a full solutions provider, combining advanced machinery, automation, and digital innovation under one cohesive brand.
An innovation lab to drive the next wave of digital manufacturing
As part of this strategic integration, Bystronic will open a new Bystronic Lab in Derio, in the Basque Country, Spain in July. The lab will serve as a technological hub for the Bystronic Software team and focus on developing integrated, connected, and data-driven solutions that help customers increase performance, streamline production, and enhance sustainability.
The Basque Country was chosen for its strong industrial roots, vibrant innovation ecosystem, and digital mindset. The new lab will initially employ around 15 software experts. It will be completed in early 2026 reinforcing the Group’s long-term commitment to innovation in one of Europe’s most dynamic regions.
"The integration of software capabilities into Bystronic’s Systems Division has progressed seamlessly. Unifying our identity under Bystronic Software reinforces our global vision and reflects the maturity we’ve reached in combining advanced machinery with automation and digital solutions."
