Poised to cut the ribbon, Claudia Haimer, CMO of Haimer GmbH, and Brendt Holden, president of Haimer USA, pause for pictures with family before welcoming customers and other guests into the newly remodeled North American headquarters in Villa Park, Illinois.

Walking into Haimer's newly remodeled facility instantly shows visitors that European charm and style.

A bustling Haimer open house shows guests mingling and enjoying plenty of food and drink in the large, bright hospitality area.

A view into Haimer's new showroom where products can be viewed and demonstrated.

Haimer's stylish display of its many tool holding and metal cutting products, including this line of Power Collet Chucks, gave open house guests an inviting view of the latest options available for advanced machining.

The expanded showroom includes a CNC machining center for demo cuts, shrink fit and balancing machines under power, and HAIMER’s complete range of tool holding solutions.

Both the training facilities (Haimer's classroom is shown here) and showroom are wired with HD cameras for live and web-based presentations.

From their new facility, Haimer will also be providing balance inspection, precision balancing, and data chipping services for tool holders from Haimer or any other manufacturer. Future service offerings will include end mill regrinding as well as Safe-Lock groove modifications.

Reflecting its roots in the Bavarian region of Germany, guests enjoyed beverages dispensed into mugs bearing the Haimer crest and name.

Located in Villa Park, Illinois, not far from Chicago, Haimer's US headquarters features state-of-the-art training facilities, an expanded showroom with machines ready to demo cuts, shrink-fit and balancing technologies that the company is known for, and Haimer's complete range of tool holding solutions are on display.

Brendt Holden, Haimer USA president, said, “As the North American metal cutting industry gravitates towards higher precision to reduce their machining times and stay globally competitive, we are now better positioned than ever to assist our customers and partners in that effort.”

Take a look at some highlights from the open house and main areas of the new headquarters. By the way, stop by Haimer's booth #211 at the Amerimold Expo in Novi, Michigan, on June 15 - 16.
