Meyer Burger Technology Ltd announced that its subsidiary Meyer Burger (Switzerland) Ltd has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Wuxi Shangji Automation Co, Ltd. for infringement of Meyer Burger’s Chinese patent number CN 104411434B for its proprietary Diamond Wire Management System (DWMS), a Meyer Burger patented wire winding system.
