HYPERAMS to auction Dura Shiloh plants in Michigan and Indiana

2 hours ago

By AI, Created 4:56 PM UTC, May 27, 2026, /AGP/ – HYPERAMS will hold multi-day auctions starting June 2, 2026, to sell equipment from two closed Dura Shiloh automotive manufacturing plants in Galesburg, Michigan, and Goshen, Indiana. The sale includes robotics, press lines, hot stamping, e-coating and support equipment, while a separate asset sale is underway at Dura Shiloh’s Valley City, Ohio facility.

Why it matters: - The auction gives buyers a chance to acquire production-ready automotive manufacturing equipment from two full plant closures. - The sale includes assets that were in production through the first quarter of 2026 and remain under power for inspection. - The offering spans robotics, stamping, machining, finishing and plant support systems across two states.

What happened: - HYPERAMS announced a major multi-location industrial auction covering the complete closure of two former Dura Shiloh facilities in Galesburg, Michigan, and Goshen, Indiana. - The multi-day auction begins June 2, 2026. - Auctions will run in live webcast and online timed formats on June 2, 3, 9 and 10, 2026. - HYPERAMS is also managing a separate ongoing private treaty sale of assets from Dura Shiloh’s operating Valley City, Ohio facility.

The details: - The Michigan and Indiana sales include metal fabrication, robotic welding, hot stamping, machining, finishing and plant support equipment from two integrated manufacturing operations. - Auction highlights include nearly 60 robotic welding and automation systems, including ABB and SKS equipment. - The offering includes more than 10 Trumpf TruLaser cells. - The sale includes Schuler and Loirsafe hot stamp presses up to 1,000 tons. - The auction includes Verson and Fagor straight-side press lines up to 1,200 tons, along with coil handling and straightening systems. - HAAS and Doosan machining centers are part of the sale. - The e-coating line includes rinse tanks, monorail cranes, reverse osmosis water purification, air scrubbing systems and cure oven infrastructure. - The sale also includes complete tool rooms, maintenance shops, quality laboratories, material handling systems and more than 400 lots of MRO and plant support equipment. - The facilities remain under power, which allows buyers to inspect equipment in place. - The Valley City, Ohio asset sale includes coil processing, stamping, welding, fabrication, material handling and plant support equipment from an active manufacturing operation. - The auctions and the Valley City sale are being conducted with National Machinery Exchange. - HYPERAMS said the partnership combines industrial expertise and global marketing reach to increase buyer participation. - Bob Pabst, president of HYPERAMS, said the plants contain significant manufacturing capability and offer an opportunity for buyers seeking immediately deployable production assets.

Between the lines: - The sale bundle signals a broad liquidation of automotive manufacturing capacity rather than a narrow equipment trim. - Buyers with stamping, welding or finishing operations may see value in the mix of large-ticket automation and support infrastructure. - The under-power status lowers inspection friction and may help accelerate bidding interest.

What’s next: - Buyers can arrange inspections, submit pre-auction offers and register through HYPERAMS. - Asset catalogs and inspection schedules are available at auction details. - HYPERAMS listed Steve Kleba, senior director of auction services, as the main contact for sale questions and inspections.
