The firm said that a recent re-structuring of the management team within its UK based operation has set the scene for additional investment within its Coventry site to support further growth within the UK and Ireland.
It has recently appointed Troy McCourt as UK managing director, as well as additional sales and engineering staff. This will be followed by further investment in several areas including the company’s IT systems, it said.
The company has four main area of business: robot tracks and linear gantry modules, linear axis components, gantry-based systems, and spares and service.
The remainder of 2017 will see an expansion in activities within the Coventry site: increasing sales of modules and linear motion products, together with the provision of configured systems, for further integration by end users and system builders, it added.
McCourt said: “Having had experience of Güdel products and systems for a number of years, I was already impressed by the high quality and longevity of the company’s Gantry Robots and Linear Motion products. I am delighted to have joined this highly respected business and look forward to working with the team to take it to the next level.”
