Methods Machine Tools, a supplier of high-quality machine tools and automation systems in North America, began representing select Weiler products in North America effective January 1, 2022.
Weiler, a German manufacturer of precision flat-bed lathes, specializes in high-mix, low-volume jobs, and long workpieces. Methods represents the company’s V-Series and E-Series lathes.
“We’ve long known about the strong history and strength of the Weiler brand," said Mark Wright, president and CEO, Methods. "So, in closing our purchase of Koch Machine Tool, we didn’t waste any time pursuing a formal partnership with Weiler. When we visited Weiler’s factory in Emskirchen, Germany, we got a first-hand look at their expert level of craftsmanship and attention to detail the company developed through 80 years of manufacturing. Weiler builds high-quality machines, but like our other partnerships, this is more than just expanding our products and services. We share the same values and long-term vision, so joining forces is a perfect fit.”
Methods appointed John LeFlore as the product manager for Weiler machines. LeFlore has more than 30 years of machining experience, including the last 17 years representing Weiler products in Texas and Louisiana as an application engineer and sales representative at Koch Machine Tool.
