history
year
the company was founded in Detroit, USA in 1899. The founding partners were J. Howard
Muzzy and Edward F. Lyon. The company was originally named Muzzy Lyon Company. Muzzy and Lyon
started their business careers by producing mill consumables and rubber products. In addition, the two partners also established a branch company named Mogul Metal
Company, and released a number of innovative bearing bush products in this branch company. In order to meet the needs of consumers, the two began to use their own babbit metal (named "Mogul", which is a kind of tin, antimony and copper alloy) to produce bearing shells. The registered trademarks of this product are "mogul"
and "Duro". In addition to babbitt, Muzzy and Lyon are also famous for pioneering the process of casting bearings according to the corresponding size and shape.
Muzzy Lyon
Company's bearing bush business was very successful, which became the main business of two founding partners in the early 2th century, and Buick Company was one of the earliest customers of the company. In order to continue writing successfully and meet the demand for bearings, MuzzyLyon
Company later merged with Federal Bearings and Bushings
Corporation, an engine bearing and bushing manufacturing company. Federal Bearings & Bushings Co. was founded in 1915
Co., and then merged to form Federal-Mogul-Bower Bearings, Inc. in 1924. The merged company began to produce copper bearing shells that could not be supplied by the previous Muzzy
Lyon Company. In order to further consolidate its success, the entire Muzzy Lyon Company and FederalBearings
and Bushing Company formed Federal-Mogul Company in 1924.
in order to make the newly merged company develop continuously, in 1929, the group established a research department with the assistance of "Battelle
Memorial Institute". During the Great Depression, Federal-Mogul Company insisted on investing in the Equi-Poise
propeller department, and this project also helped the company achieve new success. The company's continuous progress in the propeller industry was recognized in 1941
, when Federal-Mogul became the world's largest manufacturer of motorboat propellers.
in p>1932, the company developed a new alloy named C-1, which is the first new bearing material since the discovery of babbitt alloy. The research team of Federal-Mogul Company improved C-1 in 1934 and created C-5 alloy. The innovation between the two products has greatly improved the durability of the bearing bush market.
in p>1955, the company acquired National Motor Bearing
Co., and the company was renamed Federal-Mogul Bower. One year after the acquisition of another company, the total sales of Federal-MogulBower
increased to $1 million, ranking 35th among the Fortune 5 companies. In order to further expand Federal-Mogul
Bower, the company began to develop its business in Switzerland. Soon after, the company started to establish its first overseas service center in Antwerp, Belgium in 1962. Continuing the road of product expansion, Arrowhead Department of Federal-MogulBower manufactured components for Saturn probe of NASA in 1963
. In April 1965, after merging with Sterling Aluminum Products
, the company name was changed back to Federal-Mogul Corporation.
in p>1966, Federal-Mogul Company moved its headquarters out of downtown Detroit and established a new headquarters in sarsfield, Michigan.
in p>1981, the components of Federal-Mogul Arrowhead were used in the launch of NASA
spacecraft. In the same year, the company won the patent claim of a curing rubber process decided by the Supreme Court, which was based on the mathematical equation written by Swedish chemist Svante Arrhenius in 1889
. The U.S. Patent Office initially rejected Federal-Mogul's patent claim on the grounds that neither the formula (as a law of nature) nor the computer program based on this formula could be granted a patent.
in p>1998, the company acquired Cooper Industries
and its brands, including Anco wiper champion &; reg; Ignition products, MOOG chassis, Wagner and Abex friction products and Wagner
and Blazer lighting products. In the same year, Federal-Mogul also acquired Turner &;
Newall, a building materials company headquartered in Manchester, England. Turner& Newall
is one of the largest manufacturers of asbestos products in the world, including products made from the South African mineral blue crocidolite. Turner & Newall is responsible for the asbestos disaster in Armley, Leeds, England. The huge product liability compensation caused by merger and acquisition is the main reason why Federal-Mogul filed for bankruptcy in 22 under Chapter 11 of the Federation.
during the reorganization of the company, Federal-Mogul Company acquired a number of companies, including Robert G.
Evans Co, Hanauer MachineWorks, Inc, Metaltec,Inc., Mather Co and Fel-Pro,
Inc. In January 28, the company broke away from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, and in April 28, it was listed on NASDAQ as Class A common stock with the trading code FDML.
in June p>21, Federal-Mogul further expanded its business to Asia, and established a first-class headquarters and technical center in China and Shanghai.

The factory provides better technical support for power system and vehicle customers, and carries out advanced technology development.
in June 21, Federal-Mogul acquired Daros Group, a privately-owned piston supplier, which supplies pistons for large-bore engines used in industrial energy production and commercial transportation. The Group's acquisition business covers China, Sweden and Germany. After the acquisition of Daros, two-stroke and four-stroke piston ring products were added, which strengthened Federal-Mogul's position in the industrial piston ring market.
