Sikora, a subsidiary of MAAG Group and Dover (NYSE: DOV), announced the release of its Line Performance Optimizer (LPO), a software program designed to detect early-stage quality fluctuations in wire and cable production.

The LPO uses individual measurement values from Sikora measuring devices without averaging them. Those values are consolidated in an Ecocontrol processor system and displayed to allow operators to assess quality across a production line. The software is intended to help identify deviations early and support troubleshooting in the extrusion process.

Sikora first showed the LPO publicly in April at the wire Düsseldorf tradeshow in Germany. The announcement was made according to a press release issued June 23, 2026.

Sikora is headquartered in Bremen, Germany, and has 13 international subsidiaries with around 500 employees. The company joined MAAG Group in 2025. Dover, headquartered in Downers Grove, Illinois, reported annual revenue of over $8 billion and employs approximately 24,000 people.
