COORD3 Celebrates 40 Years

Italian coordinate measuring machine manufacturer COORD3 recently celebrated 40 years in business with a two-day program of activities for employees, customers, and sales and manufacturer representatives from all over the world including, the USA, Mexico, Germany, Austria, India, China, Czechoslovakia, Korea, and Israel.

Angelo Muscarella, COORD3 CEO and majority owner said, “This is an important milestone for COORD3. We have successfully developed the company forward in terms of sales growth and new product development since acquiring the business in 2010. The COORD3 brand is now reborn. We have steadily advanced our global position as one of the major suppliers of high-technology metrology equipment. This has been achieved through our very talented and hard working employees; new CMM designs and an expanded global distribution network that has brought our CMM product range to new markets. Our UNIVERSAL CMM launched last year with the world’s first wireless thermal compensation system and new subsidiaries in the USA and India are examples of the new COORD3 progress. We are very optimistic about COORD3’s future. We are one of the few CMM manufacturers supplying advanced alloy CMM structures giving us the ability to keep our manufacturing costs very close to those of China. If you combine our cost-effective CMM bridge and horizontal arm design technology with the world’s avowed best gantry CMM design, and the fact that we continue to be a major CMM structure source for other CMM manufacturers like Zeiss, Erowa and Nikon…we have a solid proven business strategy…and it’s working”

The two-day 40th Anniversary event included a special presentation by CEO Angelo Muscarella to long-serving factory employees, CMM demonstrations and discussions with customers and representatives. A celebration dinner for 150 held inside the factory, right on the factory floor.
