Mazak Optonics Corporation has recently announced that Al Bohlen has been promoted to President of their North American operations, effective immediately. Bohlen has been Vice President and General Manager since 2013. The appointment reflects Bohlen’s record of leadership and results achieved throughout his tenure at Mazak. Tomohisa Yamazaki, President and CEO of Yamazaki Mazak, made the appointment to better position Mazak Optonics for future growth and to continue the momentum of the last few years. The launch of Mazak’s new Direct Diode Laser technology and laser machine manufacturing operations at their Florence, Kentucky campus makes it an important time for Mazak. Bohlen’s depth of technical experience should help strengthen Mazak’s position in this evolving market.
