urns out it is a small world after all. Graham Engineering (York, PA, USA) has been so impressed by the quality of Knödler gear motors as the drives for the extruders it uses in all its continuous extrusion blow molding machinery that the company signed an exclusive agreement as the North American service organization for Knödler gear motors. Graham will service Knödler gear motors throughout North America, not just those used in the plastics industry, which includes extrusion blow molding machinery, stand-alone extruders, and injection molding machines, but for all industries that use Knödler gear motors as process machinery drives.
According to David Yenor, Graham Engineering's Vice-President - Global Business Development, "This is a terrific opportunity for all concerned. Our field service team is well versed in the mechanics of Knödler gear motors, so Knödler's customers will receive excellent tech support. It also opens a new revenue stream for our service operations." "We are very comfortable because of Graham's proven knowledge of Knödler's product lines and its solid field network throughout North America," notes Dieter Knödler, the company's Chief Sales Officer. "This frees us up to concentrate our service efforts around the rest of the world."
