Ladish got its start in 1905 when Herman Ladish bought a 1,500-pound steam hammer, and the company's been swinging ever since. Today the company designs and manufactures high-strength forged and cast metal components for aerospace and industrial markets. Jet engine parts, missile components, landing gear, helicopter rotors, and other aerospace products generate about 75% of the company's sales; general industrial components account for the remaining 25%. Aerospace industry giants Rolls-Royce (23%), United Technologies (15%), and General Electric (9%) together account for almost half of Ladish's sales. About 50% of its sales come from outside the US (the UK representing more than half of all foreign sales). To read the full description, subscribe now.
