Tiger Group will begin accepting bids on May 13 for the May 20 online auction of the remaining assets from Eagle Manufacturing’s engine block-machining facility in Florence, Kentucky. The 300,000-square-foot metro Cincinnati plant was shuttered by parent company Linamar Corp. on April 19, 2021.

A wide variety of manufacturing and machining companies will find items of interest in the sale of this Tier-1 automotive supplier’s remaining assets, said George Laidlaw, a Director of Business Development for Tiger’s Commercial & Industrial division.

“In addition to machining centers, the auction offers a large number of highly adaptable material-handling robots, along with tooling, parts washers, and support equipment,” Laidlaw noted.

Located about 12 miles from Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport, the well-located building may be available for lease or purchase, Laidlaw said.

The equipment on offer includes Heller five-axis machining centers; Heller horizontal machining centers; and a Haas vertical machining center. The material-handling robots (about 40 in all), include models by Fanuc and ABB.

The assets also include a Midbrook engine block pass-thru washing system, as well as pass-thru part washers by Ransohoff, Proceco and Hafroy.
Other available equipment includes coolant and chip-processing systems; air compressors; forklifts; air chillers and dryers, and gantry and job cranes.

Online bidding at SoldTiger.com will open at 10:30 a.m. (ET) on May 13 and close on Thursday, May 20, at 10:30 a.m.  (ET). All bidders are required to register prior to the sale at SoldTiger.com.
