Star Cutter Company has acquired Tru Tech CNC grinding systems from Resonetics, assuming all design and manufacturing of the Tru Tech high precision CNC grinding machines currently performed at the Michigan facilities in Mt. Clemens and Lewiston. Additionally, Star Cutter secures the service, training and spare parts support for Tru Techs’ installation base across North America and Europe.
“Tru Tech is a strategic purchase that perfectly complements our existing business,” says Brad Lawton, Star Cutter Company chairman and CEO. “It expands our technology offering to address earlier operations in the tool grinding process. New capability in blank preparation and cylindrical grinding, as well as Tru Tech’s large install base, will create synergies with Star Cutter Company’s existing business units. This is a true win-win that benefits both our company and, most importantly, our customers.”
Tru Tech systems are said to provide ease of use and fast setup while delivering accurate, repeatable results. Tru Tech’s Perimetric grinding technology and CNC Pick-N-Place software enable these machines to achieve high accuracy suited for high precision and microcomponents in the medical, aerospace, electronics and other industries. These systems are also capable of handling diverse needs from one-piece, small-lot runs through lights-out production.
Star Cutter says it will provide continued investment in Tru Tech’s people, machine platforms and service capabilities. For the near future, all Tru Tech employees will continue to function as they have at the Mt. Clemens and Lewiston operations with the Tru Tech machines and offerings ultimately becoming part of Star Cutter’s Machine Tool business unit.
