AL-KO Kober Corporation completed the installation of new, state of the art, CNC equipment to machine axle, hub, and drum components. The total investment exceeds $3,000,000 and will generate more than 20 jobs.

“While other companies look offshore for components AL-KO is investing in the American work force” said Tim Kuppler, President. “We believe it is not only good for the local economy but gives us a substantial advantage over our competition and positions us to offer superior products to our customers”.
