Tiger Group will begin accepting bids on May 13 for its May 20 online auction of the remaining assets from Eagle Manufacturing’s engine block-machining facility in Florence, KY. The 300,000-square-foot metro Cincinnati plant was shuttered by parent company Linamar on April 19. A variety of manufacturing and machining companies will find items of interest in the sale of this Tier-1 automotive supplier’s remaining assets.
“In addition to machining centers, the auction offers a large number of highly adaptable material-handling robots, along with tooling, parts washers and support equipment,” George Laidlaw, a director of business development for Tiger’s commercial and industrial division, said.
Located about 12 miles from Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport, the Eagle Manufacturing building may be available for lease or purchase.
The equipment on offer includes Heller five-axis machining centers, Heller horizontal machining centers and a Haas vertical machining center. The material-handling robots (about 40 in all) include models by Fanuc and ABB.
The assets also include a Midbrook engine block pass-thru washing system, as well as pass-thru part washers by Ransohoff, Proceco and Hafroy.
Other available equipment includes coolant and chip-processing systems, air compressors, forklifts, air chillers and dryers, and gantry and job cranes.
