In 1988, General Engineering, Inc., which in previous years had been an equal market rival to WILMEC, abandoned its custom machine business by closing its Detroit, Michigan, plant. General Engineering (GE) sold its technology to WILMEC, and GE’s production equipment was moved to WILMEC’s Fort Wayne plant. The result of WILMEC’s technology acquisition from GE was that a third, and very different, technology called “large horizontal” also started being manufactured in Fort Wayne. At this time, WILMEC also expanded its custom machine reconditioning operation in Chicago to handle the assembly of one-third of its medium
horizontal machines. By 1990, the Fort Wayne plant pro-
duced all three custom machine types: large horizontal, large
vertical, and medium horizontal.
