New organization to offer comprehensive aftermarket support, contract maintenance, productivity enhancements, and machine life-cycle services via new global hubs
Chicago, IL, September 6, 2006 - Maintenance Technologies announced that it has expanded both its brand coverage and comprehensive portfolio of products and services to be a single-source for aftermarket support and maintenance services for all of the equipment manufacturers included under parent company, MAG-IAS, as well as for equipment produced by other unrelated companies.

"Maintenance Technologies is about much more than simple maintenance," explained Bill Horwarth, President of Maintenance Technologies. "Our focus is on minimizing the total cost of ownership, and that includes everything from helping customers select the right cutting tools, to supplying advanced factory optimization software solutions and sensory technologies.
"We also have complete rebuilding, remanufacturing, and retrofitting capability to extend the life of virtually any of the machine tools we cover," Horwarth continued. "Maintenance Technologies delivers services and solutions that relieve managers from the burden of equipment maintenance, while at the same time improving the productivity and utilization of these vital, capital assets."
Maintenance Technologies will support all existing MAG-IAS brands, including:
o Cincinnati Machine o Giddings & Lewis Machine Tools o Cincinnati Automation & Test o Cincinnati Machine Limited o Cross Hüller o Ex-Cell-O o Lamb o Hüller Hille o Hessapp o Witzig & Frank o Turmatic Systems Inc. o Fadal Machining Centers o Honsberg Machine
The company will also offer global service, parts, and technical support for a broad selection of legacy machine tool brands, including:
o Avey o Bendix o Bickford o Buhr o Cincinnati Lamb o Cincinnati Milacron o Colonial Broach o CL Automation o Cross Hüller o Davis Tooling o Drillunit o FMT o GA Gray o Gisholt o Heald o Heald Red Head o Kearney & Trecker o KTM o Lamb Technicon o Lamb Assembly & Test o LaSalle Machine o Marwin o Michigan Machine & Engineering o Michigan Special o Modig o R&B Machine Tool o The Cincinnati Milling Machine Company o Warner & Swasey
Maintenance Technologies will operate major hubs in the United States, Germany, China, and Brazil, and maintain parts and service centers in Hebron, Kentucky, Sterling Heights, Michigan, St. Louis, Missouri, Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin, Chatsworth and Irvine, California, and Guelph in Ontario, Canada. Globally, their parts and service hubs stock $44 million of dedicated inventory comprised of over 1 million part numbers to promptly support the machine tool brands their customers know and trust. This comprehensive parts inventory supports a 90% plus off-the-shelf parts availability capability. More than 250 service engineers are in place globally, along with factory-trained technicians and more than 50 technical support specialists.
"Maintenance Technologies offers parts, technical support, technical training, machine certification, preventive maintenance contracts, repair & exchange of critical units, rebuild, retrofit and remanufacturing services, as well as a variety of innovative software solutions," Horwarth said. "We have the expertise and diverse experience that enables us to make a customer's machine tool more productive, thus making their entire plant operations more productive."
