Hungarian facility ribbon cutting ceremony

Curtiss-Wright announces ribbon cutting ceremony of its new surface technologies facility in Bekescsaba, Hungary

Curtiss-Wright’s Surface Technologies Division, a leading global provider of highly engineered surface treatments and analytical services, announces the ribbon cutting ceremony of its first Hungarian location in Bekescsaba, Hungary.

This facility is a strategic partnership with Linamar Hungary Zrt, a premier EV gearbox manufacturer for electric vehicles, and will provide on-site shot peening services, while also providing a platform to support the entire Eastern European market.

David Rivellini, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Curtiss-Wright Surface Technologies Division, says “We are delighted to have been asked by Linamar to provide a solution to support their shot peening needs.

Shot peening extends the lifetime performance for high torque applications, which is critical to the electric vehicle market. Not only will this new facility allow us to provide quick turn times for Linamar, thereby saving them time and money, but will also allow us the opportunity to support additional shot peening needs in the growing Hungarian aerospace market as well as the Eastern European market.”
