Gleason Corporation recently announced it has acquired 100% of the shares of the Intra Group of Companies with its headquarters in Westland, Michigan. Intra is a global industry leader offering a broad range of custom measurement technology including single flank gear testing equipment and is a supplier of high precision gears and components to many of the world’s leading aerospace and defense companies.

John J. Perrotti, Gleason Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Intra’s established range of metrology solutions for propulsion systems including for NVH analysis complements Gleason’s existing gear metrology products and will bring exciting opportunities for future joint developments and further market expansion.  In addition, we see opportunities across many other aspects of our respective businesses ranging from precision machining, workholding, automation and more.”

Mr. Perrotti further stated, “This strategic addition to our portfolio fits nicely with our mission of Total Gear Solutions and the Design-Manufacture-Measure ecosystem fundamental to that mission, while at the same time expanding our presence in market segments which promise future growth.” 

John Battista Jr., Chief Executive Officer of the Intra Companies commented, “We have been a family business for 48 years and we see Gleason in terms of its similar culture and values along with its well-known global brand and range of technology to be the ideal successor to take the Intra Group to the next level of performance.”   

John Battista III, President of the Intra Companies, said “I am excited to join the Gleason leadership team and work collaboratively to realize the full potential of our combined companies for the benefit of our customers, employees and other partners. We will continue forward with the same operating organisation and are diligently working together to achieve a seamless integration.
