ANCA announces the appointment of Edmund Boland as the new general manager of ANCA CNC Machines. Edmund is the son of ANCA co-founder Pat Boland.
He brings a 15-year tenure at ANCA to his new position.
“When Pat McCluskey and I founded ANCA, our primary goal was to design the best technology that solves real customer problems,” said Pat Boland. “I am proud that my son has joined this mission and has accepted this important leadership role in the business to continue fostering a culture of innovation.”
ANCA is a privately owned business and proud of its reputation for being first to market with technology that has proven time and again to revolutionize the cutting tool industry. Celebrating its 50th anniversary next year, McCluskey, ANCA co-founder said, “being privately owned brings great benefits as it means that we can focus on investing and developing new innovations while maintaining our long-term view of the market to design products with longevity and customer focus.”
“I am honored and thrilled to be a part of ANCA CNC Machines, such an exciting company in the cutting tool industry,” said Edmund Boland. “Every day, I am amazed by the skill and prowess of our customers, who continue to push the entire industry forward. ANCA is in my blood, and our commitment to innovation is unparalleled. Throughout our extensive history, we have consistently been the first to market with new technology, investing over 15 percent of our revenue every year into research and development.
“Technology is truly in our DNA; for example, ANCA’s Integrated Manufacturing System (AIMS) which is one of our latest products could be considered akin to the impact of a printing press and is set to revolutionize the cutting tool industry. I am excited to lead ANCA into a future of continued innovation, growth, and success, while educating the market about the transformative power of our new nanometer control system and ensuring the success of our internal investments such as in our machine shop or our sub-micron metrology equipment.”
Edmund Boland’s journey at ANCA began in February 2008, and throughout his career with the company, he has held key positions in the finance, operations, strategy, regional management, and applications teams. This diverse experience has afforded him a deep understanding of ANCA’s operations and a comprehensive perspective on the company’s strategic goals.
Prior to assuming his new role as general manager, Edmund Boland led ANCA’s European Branch with remarkable success during the unparalleled challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. His exceptional leadership and strategic vision enabled ANCA to navigate through this disruptive period while ensuring uninterrupted supply of high-quality CNC machines to customers worldwide.
