Two hundred new jobs headed to ThyssenKrupp

DANVILLE – Though chomping at the bit to announce the good news of 200 new jobs at ThyssenKrupp Crankshaft Company, Vicki Haugen of Vermilion Advantage said ThyssenKrupp needed to inform employs of its Fostoria, Ohio plant of its closing first.

The Danville facility will consolidate the company's crankshaft machining work to the Danville International Drive location. The two machining plants produce crankshafts for the North American heavy-duty automotive, truck and engine markets.
