The partnership with MODIG solutions includes increased productivity and substantial cost-effectiveness for manufacturing EV components.

David Modig, President Modig Machine Tool, and Marc Schins, Executive Director – Advanced Sales & Marketing, Gil-Mar Manufacturing, signed an agreement where Gil-Mar will use the MODIG Technology for their electric vehicle components production with a number of MODIG solutions to be delivered.
“Gil-Mar is an important player in the automotive sector, and we are honored to be a part of their journey towards the electric vehicle market.” David Modig, President Modig Machine Tool
We have talked with Marc Schins, Executive Director – Advanced Sales & Marketing, Gil-Mar Manufacturing about the MODIG solutions.
THE CHOICE OF MODIG
Gil-Mar chose Modig because they offered a flexible solution for machining complex aluminum extrusions. In our interviews with existing customers, they were very complimentary of how the machine worked, and what support Modig gave to help with any issues.

BENEFITS WITH THE MODIG
They offer quick change over times, which allows for greater OEE, and simplicity. The fast cycle times allow our equipment investment to be lower than it would be with “traditional” machines. The machine also reduces Work In Progress (WIP) by producing finished parts from an extrusion.
