Comer Group SpA, a world leader in the design and manufacture of highly engineered power transmission systems, has acquired Tecnostile, which manufactures wheel-drive gearboxes for forklifts and materials handling and other battery-operated equipment. "Tecnostile fits very well with our strategy of being a supplier of special products dedicated to OEMs in mobile equipment," says Stefano Mion, Comer Group chief operating officer. Over 25 years, Tecnostile has developed a wide range of products for materials handling equipment. It also supplies complete electric wheel drives, electric motors and wheels, sourced from other independent manufacturers.
