American Hofmann Corporation is a design and production facility of balancing machines in Lynchburg, Virginia USA. It was opened in 1972.[3]

American Hofmann balancing machines cover a wide range of sizes and applications. Machines range from simple bench-top models to fully automatic, multi-station measuring and correction systems, as well as portable field balancers [2]. American Hofmann serves the automotive, electric motor, turbocharger, gas turbine, airline, digital media, pump, oil and gas, medical, textile, nuclear, military, and environmental industries.[4]

American Hofmann standard balancing machines include vertical, side-spindle, and horizontal balancers for rotor diameters from 0.3 mm to parts greater than four meters in diameter, and weights from 50 mg to 40 tons. Additionally, the company specializes in custom balancing machines designed for unique applications.[4]

Balancing services include contract balancing, balancing machine upgrades and retrofits[1], rotor analysis, training, and financing.

The Hofmann Brothers formed the balancing business Gebrueder Hofmann in Darmstadt, Germany in 1931.[3] Dionys Hofmann, the son of the one of the original founders, is the founder and current owner of American Hofmann Corporation, along with its balancing partner Hofmann Mess-und Auswuchttechnik.

Organizational arrangement depends on the result to be industrial as Wheelwright and Clark define scale executive structure among two boundaries; functional organizations are planned according to industrial regulation. Higher functional manager is responsible for apportioning assets. The accountability for entire creation is not owed to a solitary human being. Harmonizations occur all the way through system and events, thorough stipulation, shared customs between engineers and meeting. Thus, light-weighted matrix association remain functional and height of occupation is analogous to that establish in the practical mode. The position and influence puts value to the functional managers, since they have direct right of entry to functioning level community. The project members depart their functional subdivision and dedicate full time to the development, “share the same location. The professionals are less specialized and have brioader tasks, skills and responsibilities. The functional manager is responsible for the personnel development and the more detailed technology research in the functional groups”. Several companies can be classified into organization structures. For example, NASA developed a matrix management system for its space program because it needed to simultaneously emphasize several different functions and projects, none of which could be stressed at the expense of another. It found that traditional management structures were too practical, hierarchical, slow poignant, and inflexible. NASA's matrix solution overcame problems by synthesize projects, such as scheming rocket booster, with executive function, like staffing and finance. Most structure departmentalize, employment and other resource. Functional organizations are segmented by key functions. For example, activities related to production, marketing, and finance might be grouped into three respective divisions. Within each division, moreover, activities would be departmentalized into subdepartments. The marketing for example, might include sales, publicity, and support departments. The chief benefit of functionally structured organization is that there typically realize reasonably capable occupation of labor and are moderately easy for employees to understand.

Bayer AG of Germany, one of the largest and oldest chemical and health care products companies in the world. Because of massive sales gains and increased activity overseas in the early 1980s, Bayer announced reorganization in 1984. Bayer had been successful with a conventional organizational structure that was departmentalized by function. However, in response to new conditions the company wanted to create a structure that would allow it to achieve three primary goals shift management control from the then West German parent company to its foreign divisions and subsidiaries; restructure its business divisions to more clearly define their duties; flatten the organization, or empower lower level managers to assume more responsibility, so that top executives would have more time to plan strategy (Burton and Obel, 1998; Knight, 1977). Bayer selected a relatively diverse matrix management format to pursue its goals. It delineated all of its business activities into six groups under an umbrella company called Bayer World. Within each of the six groups were several subgroups made up of product categories such as dyestuffs, fibers, or chemicals
