The Gehring Group, a system supplier and a specialist in the field of production technology for internal combustion engines, expands its product portfolio by merging with copperING, which provides machines and equipment for the production of electric motors.
This establishes the two companies as suppliers for production systems in both conventional and electrical powertrain segments and is a key component in the global strategy of both companies to meet changing market demands.
As a global automotive supplier with more than 90 years of experience, Gehring is a technology specialist and supplier for honing cylinders in combustion engines. Furthermore, the company contributes towards the reduction of CO2 emissions from engines with its innovative technologies such as honing and coating. Electromobility is indispensable for achieving future CO2 emission reduction targets in the automotive industry.
copperING, with locations in Wernigerode (Germany) and Nuvolera (Italy), has experience as a manufacturer of production technology in the field of electrical powertrains. The company focuses on the main processes for the production of rotors and stators, which are particularly suitable for use in the traction drives of electrical vehicles.
The integration of copperING into the Gehring Group will permit customers to choose from a wide range of innovative production technologies for their various drive concepts from a single source. In addition to the system and automation competence of Gehring, copperING's product range constitutes an ideal basis for supplying lines for e-motor production.
"The merger with copperING enables us to optimally complement our product portfolio and to respond to the evolving needs of our customers - another step in the sustainable future of the company. We are very much looking forward to our common path," Dr. Sebastian Schöning, CEO of the Gehring Group, said of the merger.
"The merger will strengthen our market position and give us the opportunity to roll out our technologies worldwide. This is a big step for us into a common future," said Richard Rasp, Managing Director of the copperING Group.
