Strausak AG, Lohn-Ammannsegg, Switzerland, has opened a subsidiary in Mundelein, IL, and incorporated in the state of Illinois. Hank Ecker, previously Regional Sales Manager of Rollomatic Inc., has assumed the responsibility of President of Strausak Inc.
Rollomatic Holding, LeLanderon, Switzerland, acquired Strausak in 2011. "With the R&D, purchasing power and other resources of Rollomatic, the new and restructured Strausak organization continued the design of innovative precision CNC grinding machines," said a company spokesperson. "Strausak provides CNC tool grinding technologies that are designed for precision and flexibility. As one of the first users of the NUM control and Numroto tool grinding software, Strausak knew the necessity of flexibility and productivity for grinding specialty cutting tools and for resharpening.
"The return to the USA marks an important milestone in its long history. Strausak is one of the oldest names in the CNC tool grinding field and had already delivered NC-controlled tool grinders in the early 1980s. Strausak completed the first design and delivery of a production machine for the automated manufacturing of watch parts in 1927."
Strausak USA will draw on resources from Rollomatic Inc., and will provide service and support from its North American headquarters in Mundelein, IL.
