With over 300 guests in attendance, GF Machining Solutions (Lincolnshire, IL) recently opened their new innovation and production center in Biel, Switzerland. The new building will serve as the division’s new headquarters.
The company invested two years and nearly 100 million Swiss francs ($100 million USD) in the construction of the new 44,000 sq m facility, which unites three former locations in Nidau, Ipsach and Luterbach, Switzerland and brings the Swiss milling and laser production divisions together for the first time. The new building provides room for new R&D and application centers and allocates 13,000 sq m of space for production and assembly.
“From this new location, we will be able to strengthen our position as a global player, and at the same time maintain our Swiss roots,” stated Pascal Boillat, the company president.
