STOCKHOLM--Swedish industrial tool maker Atlas Copco AB said Monday that board member Sabine Neuss has resigned with effect from today.

Ms. Neuss has been a member of the Atlas Copco board since April 2016.

"We regret Sabine's decision," Hans Straberg, chair of Atlas Copco, said.

"Sabine has been a good contribution to the board with her global operational experience. She has also had great insight [into] the German market, a very important market for Atlas Copco."
