History
UNITED GRINDING North America was established in 1984 under the name Hauni-Blohm-Schaudt in Richmond, Virginia. The name changed in 1989 to Blohm, Inc.
In 1994, Blohm Inc. and its parent company, Schleifring GmbH, a division of Koerber Group established United Grinding Technologies, Inc., in Miamisburg, Ohio to consolidate the North American operations of all their machine tool companies. In the summer of 1995, the building in Miamisburg was expanded and improved to house the corporate offices, the new showroom for machines, the warehouse/shop, and the service department. This location still serves as the company's North American headquarters to cover the US, Canada, and Mexico, and supports cylindrical, surface, and profile grinders. An office in Fredericksburg, Virginia handles tool grinders and measuring machines.
In 2013, Körber Schleifring and United Grinding Technologies were combined under the new brand name UNITED GRINDING Group - Körber Solutions. This move expanded the company's global market position in relation to grinding technology, service and volume.
UNITED GRINDING North America is responsible for the importation, sales, service and "Americanization" of high precision grinding machines built by the member companies of the group in Germany and Switzerland. The companies originally included Blohm Maschinenbau GmbH, Sheffield-Schaudt Maschinenbau GmbH, Maegerle AG, and Studer AG. Today, UNITED GRINDING North America, Inc. companies also include: Mikrosa, Jung, and Ewag.
