3-D Service Authorized by ABB as Service Provider, Systems Integrator & Distributor of Drives, Control Products

Massillon, OH — 3-D Service is proud to announce its authorization by ABB, a recognized global leader in power and automation technologies, in three key areas: as an exclusive service provider, an authorized systems integrator and an authorized distributor of ABB drives and control products. Formerly owned and operated by ABB, 3-D Service is now the selected service arm of ABB in the Northeastern United States, with the capacity to extend its service across the country.

The ABB connection goes back to 1988, when the Swiss-based company bought the Jackson Bailey motor shop, the name under which it operated since its inception in 1937. In 2000, the company was acquired from ABB by Grand Eagle, Inc. In March, 2002, 3-D Service was formed with the purchase of the Grand Eagle's Massillon Industrial Equipment Service Center.

With the announcement of 3-D Service as an ABB-authorized service provider and distributor, Bernie DeWees, president of 3-D Service, said “We’re proud to reclaim our heritage with ABB, which has been a core business for us, and we look forward to a long future in servicing and selling their equipment.”

Adds Jan-Anders Bergman, VP Electrical Machines, ABB: “We’re happy to be associated with the new 3-D Service company. We have worked with and trained their employees for many years so we are confident of the quality service they provide.”

"Much of 3-D Service's current staff of factory-trained engineers has been with the company for more than two decades, stated DeWees. "These are the same people, bringing the same expertise and commitment to their jobs as when we were owned by ABB," says DeWees."We're committed to providing customers with exceptional repair, service and new product support from a single source. If you really want ABB factory support, you want 3-D Service."
