Cincinnati, Ohio-based Rhinestahl Corp. has secured an agreement to take over GE Aviation’s Customer Tooling Solutions (CTS) business unit. As part of the deal, Rhinestahl will become GE’s preferred OEM provider for turbine engine and airframe tooling. Rhinestahl CEO Dieter Moeller explains that GE customers “will continue working with the same customer account managers and support staff that they have been accustomed to working with at GE CTS, only now they will be employees of Rhinestahl.” Fourteen GE employees and the warehouse operations in Vineland, N.J. will transition to a new location in Cincinnati, Moeller says, adding that there will be little or no interruption in service.
