American Heck acquires Italian high-end machine tool manufacturer LCM

Recently, Hurco, a leader in machine tool and integrated control technology in the United States, has acquired LCM Srl, an Italian high-end machine tool parts manufacturer. Mr. Gregory Volovic, President of Hucker Group, said that Hucker's strategic acquisition of LCM's business is to further implement its corporate mission in the development of advanced machine tool technology. Following the growing trend of global machine tool users for advanced technology and multi-functional CNC machine tools, Hurco has been committed to developing and providing advanced innovative technologies to help users remain competitive and achieve profitable growth. LCM Srl has been one of Hurco's long-term suppliers of machine tool components. When Hurco developed and launched the SRT model, the latest generation of 5-axis machining centers, LCM's direct-drive spindle, rotary head, and embedded rotary torque table were used to achieve superior 5-axis simultaneous machining performance. This acquisition is crucial to the Hecker Group's target growth plan. It will strengthen Heck's financial resources, gain more technical flexibility in new product research and development, and expand the application scope of the LCM series of high-quality products.
