Emuge Corp. is now the exclusive North American agent for The HOHENSTEIN Company, one of Germany’s leading companies for design and production of work piece clamping fixtures. This arrangement will combine reliable high-quality, special purpose work piece clamping fixtures from HOHENSTEIN with Emuge’s application expertise in demanding workholding and tooling solutions.
“By adding the specialized clamping fixtures from HOHENSTEIN to our lines, we further demonstrate our commitment to our customers to fulfill their unique application requirements,” comments Peter Matysiak, president of Emuge Corp. “The fixtures are a natural addition, as our Precision Workholding Department specializes in customized solutions where accuracy and repeatability play a major role.”
Michael Franzki, managing director of HOHENSTEIN says, ““Emuge’s reputation for offering the highest quality cutting tools, workholding solutions and engineering / application support made them the logical choice to be our agent in North America. Also, our team of experienced design and production engineers are available to consult with Emuge.”
The two companies enjoy a symbiotic relationship. For example, HOHENSTEIN provides Emuge with plumbed pneumatic and hydraulic manifold base plates which are used in conjunction with Emuge workholding and workholding nests. And HOHENSTEIN mounts Emuge workholding to their tombstone and pallet devices.
