Truetzschler and Toyota have agreed that Truetzschler
will take over the complete responsibility from Toyota for the comber business
from engineering up to sales, service and spare parts as of the effective date
1st November 2017.
This also includes HARA service and spare
parts business which will be handled by Truetzschler exclusively starting 1st
February 2018.
Japan based Toyota Industry Corporation and
Trützschler GmbH & Co. KG from Germany, had started in 2010 a successful
cooperation with a joint development of a new combing machine - the TCO 12 -
which was exhibited at the ITMA Asia 2012 in Shanghai.
Since that time, both companies have sold
already several hundred machines worldwide including the newly developed Super
Lap TSL 12.
After about five years of successful
cooperation, both Toyota and Truetzschler have now come to this new arrangement
in order to strengthen their complementary partnership by focusing their
individual efforts for further innovations and services to the markets.
