Star-SU and LeCount Form Distribution Agreement

Star-SU and LeCount LLC announced an agreement for the sales and distribution of expanding mandrels, spline mandrels, concentric rings and custom mandrels in North America through Star-SU sales. Marshall Krumpe, sales and marketing director for LeCount, explains, ?This is similar to them taking on a new product line like what they did for Bourn & Koch or Fellows except that we’re a lot smaller. We’re a little niche market that they’re embracing as a sales opportunity. We have high hopes that we can work well together.? The kick-off date for this partnership was Oct. 1. Training has begun for the sales team, which will soon be making joint calls. In addition, the LeCount sales brochures are downloadable from the Star-SU website. Star-SU, of Hoffman Estates, IL, is the U.S. sales and manufacturing unit of Samputensili S.p.A . These companies represent gear machine and gear tool manufacturing producers of gear cutting, finishing, and tooling equipment. LeCount Inc., based in White River Junction, VT, manufactures mandrels and custom tooling for precisely holding bore-type cylindrical workpieces for inspection.
