Government issues ruling on Anyang ST and Jia Hua Forging Press Manufacturing Company.
Anyang Forging Press Company (AFP) started designing and manufacturing the new “L” designed pneumatic power hammer in 2015. This work was a result of collaboration between our engineers, James Johnson (USA), Bruce Beamish (Australia), and John Nicholson (UK). In 2017 three sales employees quit AFP and joined Jia Hua Forging Press Manufacturing Company. After a lengthy investigation, the government determined that these employees illegally took design drawings and other proprietary information that was owned by AFP and violated confidentiality agreements. As a result of this investigation, the China government found Jai Hua and the ex-AFP employees guilty of copying the AFP design and other infractions and have forced the manufacturer to stop manufacturing copies of our hammers and has also imposed a fine for the many infringements. Jai Hua also fired the former AFP employees. There will be further legal action against the ST trading company and the former AFP employees.
