President for European Bearing Association
President for European Bearing Association
The Federation of European Bearing Manufacturers' Association (FEBMA) has elected Maurice Amiel of Timken France, as its new President. Mr Amiel succeeds Mauritz Sahlin of SKF in Sweden, who held the position of FEBMA President for the last four years. Other new appointments announced by the Federation include the election of Lorenz M. Raith of INA Germany as FEBMA Vice President and Hartmut Rauen of VDMA Germany as the new General Secretary.
FEBMA is a federation formed by the national bearing associations of Austria, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Spain and Sweden. It represents the interests of the European bearing industry, which in 1996 had a turnover of 6.5 billion ECU. The development of the bearing industry is directly linked to the industries it serves and with bearing customers predicting growth over the next few years, FEBMA believes this will bring positive benefits to the European bearing industry.
