Schleifring Group companies Blohm Maschinenbau GmbH and K Jung GmbH are to merge and become Blohm Jung GmbH.
The two companies are specialists in surface and profile grinding and, says Schleifring, “they have better market opportunities and very good prospects for the future” following the merger.
The two companies’ practical expertise will be bundled by means of technology transfer and targeted staff training. In future, the sales team will represent the whole spectrum of surface and profile grinding technology. This will result in greater competence, more detailed advice and customer support, and greater area coverage, says the company.
The co-operation already practised in research and development in the past will be intensified so that the new company will be able to react more quickly to market requirements and present innovative product solutions in a more targeted way, the official release further adds.
An extension of the product program to include new, common machine platforms [as is the case with Studer and Schaudt] will “help the company to open up new market sectors and offer customers better, more efficient and commercially more attractive solutions as a result of the synergies generated.”
Management of Blohm Jung GmbH is by Krister Bruhn and Uwe Henning, long-standing CEOs of Blohm and Jung, respectively.
