What REGO-FIX does
REGO-FIX is a Swiss family-owned manufacturer of precision toolholding systems, founded in 1950 by Fritz Weber and headquartered in Tenniken, Switzerland, with a wholly-owned US subsidiary (REGO-FIX Tool Corp.) in Whitestown, Indiana. The company designs and produces mechanical toolholding solutions built around four core product platforms — the ER System (the original ER collet chuck introduced in 1972 and subsequently DIN-standardized), powRgrip (high-speed milling and drilling with high vibration dampening), micRun (a precision tier with total system runout of ≤3 µm at 3 x D), and uniTec (broad-coverage toolholding) — supported by add-on modules including Measuring Technology, toolVibe smart toolholder, secuRgrip safety devices, reCool internal-cooling retrofits, and intRlox locking enhancements. Products are manufactured as Swiss Made at the Tenniken headquarters and span a wide range of spindle interfaces (HSK, CAPTO, SK, BT, CAT, MK, and others).
The business model is industrial B2B hardware sales sold primarily through a global network of regional sales partners, supplemented by direct field sales through the US subsidiary (which maintains a Price & Availability Tool for registered distributors) and OEM embedding into machine tool builders. Pricing is quote-based under multi-year contracts rather than publicly listed, reflecting the specialized, specification-driven nature of precision toolholding. The customer base is diversified across at least six verticals — aerospace manufacturing and MRO (the primary segment), automotive, medical, watchmaking, mold and die, and machine tool OEM — which limits single-vertical dependency.
Ownership and governance remain with the founding Weber family. In January 2026, Richard Weber transitioned from CEO to Chairman of the Board, with Pascal Forrer — who joined in 2018 to lead international marketing and sales — assuming the CEO role; brothers Andreas and Stefan Weber continue to serve on the board. The company is ISO 9001 certified, acquired a majority equity interest in Swiss peer GEWITEC AG in January 2022 to broaden its product portfolio, and has invested in digital product extensions (toolVibe) that align the offering with Industry 4.0 and toolcrib automation trends in aerospace MRO.

REGO-FIX product offering
Product offeringCore offering
REGO-FIX manufactures and distributes precision toolholding systems for CNC machining, organized around four core platforms (ER, powRgrip, micRun, uniTec) and complemented by toolholders, collets, clamping nuts, measuring technology, the toolVibe smart toolholder, and safety/cooling add-ons (secuRgrip, reCool, intRlox). Customers are industrial manufacturers in aerospace, automotive, medical, watchmaking, mold and die, and machine-tool OEM sectors, served via global sales partners and a direct US subsidiary.
Product overview
REGO-FIX is a Swiss manufacturer of high-quality toolholding systems operating on a platform-plus-modules architecture. The core product family consists of four main systems: ER System (industry standard since 1972), powRgrip System (for high-speed applications with excellent runout and vibration dampening), micRun System (precision option with ≤3 µm runout), and uniTec (broad range toolholding). Supporting these core systems are specialized modules including Measuring Technology and toolVibe (smart toolholder with digital capabilities), plus security innovations like secuRgrip (for ER and powRgrip) and reCool ER (internal cooling retrofit). The product portfolio spans toolholders, collets, clamping nuts, accessories, and covers multiple spindle interfaces including HSK, CAPTO, SK, BT, CAT, MK, and others. All products marked Swiss Made are manufactured at headquarters in Tenniken, Switzerland.
