FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Jergens Workholding Solutions Next Generation Tooling California & Nevada
SACRAMENTO,  CA. - Next Generation Tooling is excited to announce that effective November 1, 2020, we will be the exclusive agent for California and Nevada for Jergens, Inc.

"We've been working with machine shops for a couple decades now to develop more efficient workholding and fixturing methods and we found ourselves in a position of not having a complete product line of workholding solutions that included manual and hydraulic clamping combined with 5 Axis solutions. Jergens checks off all of those boxes" said Chris Savolainen, President of Next Generation Tooling. 

Jergens Inc's Long History of Workholding on the West Coast.

In 1942, Jack Schron, Sr. founded Glenn Tool and Manufacturing, with his father Christy in Cleveland, Ohio. In response to the needs of wartime production, they began to manufacture standard components in the building next door, with the goal of helping American Manufacturers operate quickly and more efficiently.
​“The Standard Components with the Highest Standards” became this new company’s founding philosophy, and it put Jergens, Inc. on the forefront of the “lean manufacturing” movement before anyone even thought to put those two words together.

In 1955 Jergens made their first foray in workholding when the received a  patent on the Sine Fixture Key and it become the first of many patented workholding items in Jergens' product line.

Jergens has a long history on the West Coast as well.  In 1981 Jergens, Inc. acquires California distributor Liberty Industrial Company and developed the first 5 axis vises in the early 2000's in their west coast facility well before anyone else was even thinking about 5 axis machining. ​

In the 90's Jergens developed the Ball Lock® Quick change system and in 2008 acquired Bock Workholding form Joe Cousins, who was part of the original team who created the Chick Workholding vise. 

In 2011, Jergens, Inc. introduced the Fixture-Pro® Line, which was the first comprehensive, modular system approach to 5-Axis Workholding available.

NGT to Represent the Workholding Group of the Tooling Component Division (TCD) 

In 1987 Jergens created three divisions within the company: Assembly Systems Group (ASG), Jergens Industrial Supply (JIS) and the Tooling Component Division (TCD).

The Tooling Component Division (TCD) I comprised of of three groups: The 
Workholding Solutions Group, the Specialty Fasteners Group and the Lifting Solutions Group.
Beginning November 1, 2020, Next Generation Tooling will represent the Workholding Solutions Group of  Jergens, Inc Tooling Component Division (TCD) which includes products such as the  Ball Lock®, Bock Workholding CNC Machine Production Vises, Zero Point Mounting System(ZPS), 5-Axis Drop&Lock™ Pallet Changers & Pull Studs, Fixture-Pro® Line and Quick-Loc product lines. Jergens also makes a complete line hydraulic power clamping which included Breadbox air powered hydraulic pumps.   ​
