Schütte appoints North American CEO

Schütte, Jackson, Mich., a supplier of multispindle machine tools and grinders, has appointed Jeffrey Reinert to the position of CEO for the North American operations.

Reinert brings more than 30 years of related experience to the position, having been involved with all aspects of manufacturing, sales, marketing, and management in the machine tool industry. He was most recently the president and CEO for North American operations at Index.

Reinert attended Vincennes University, Valparaiso University, and Purdue, where he studied electrical and mechanical engineering.

“Schütte has a solid reputation as a builder of top-quality, multispindle machine tools and, based on that foundation, we plan to accelerate the company’s growth curve to take us into more markets with a decidedly aggressive posture, including greater visibility in the media, at shows, and through industry association participation. Complementing this sales growth strategy will be a buildup in our service, engineering, and customer support programs,” said Reinert.
