CHS Automation/Pneumatic Feed Service joins Nidec Press & Automation Group

Minster, Ohio-based Nidec Minster Corp., a member of the Nidec Press & Automation group, has acquired Michigan-based automation equipment manufacturer CHS Automation and service provider Pneumatic Feed Service.

Nidec Press & Automation CEO David Winch said the acquisition of CHS Automation and its emphasis on heavy-duty coil lines and high-tensile material straightening equipment directly complements the existing NP&A market offering for contract and automotive stampers.

In addition to the OEM business, CHS operates the Pneumatic Feed Service organization, which provides regional service, machinery remanufacturing, and used equipment.
