| Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | Income Taxes During the three months ended April 1, 2016, Income before income taxes was $39.3 million and the Provision for income taxes was $13.1 million. The effective tax rate of 33.4% for the three months ended April 1, 2016 differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to international tax rates, which are lower than the U.S. tax rate, offset in part by losses in certain jurisdictions where a tax benefit is not expected to be recognized in 2016. During the three months ended March 27, 2015, Income before income taxes was $65.4 million and the Provision for income taxes was $9.1 million. The effective tax rate of 14.0% for the three months ended March 27, 2015 differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to a tax benefit of $13.0 million associated with the resolution of certain liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits and international tax rates, which are lower than the U.S. tax rate, offset in part by losses in certain jurisdictions where a tax benefit was not expected to be recognized in 2015. |
