PennEngineering Settles Case Involving Trademark

Jason Sandefur

PennEngineering & Manufacturing Corp. settled its lawsuit against Shanghai Jingyang Import & Export Co. Ltd. for alleged infringement of certain patents and trademarks. Terms were not disclosed.

PennEngineering sued Jingyang and five other fastener manufacturers who exhibited at the 2007 National Industrial Fastener Show/West in Las Vegas over allegations the companies were “exhibiting and offering for sale products which violate one or more of PennEngineering’s trademarks and patents.”

The original complaint was filed on November 13, 2007, in the U.S. District Court in Nevada. PEM products named in the complaints include Types PF11, PF12, PFC2P, PFHV, AC, AS, LAC, LAS, FH, SKC, and TPS.

“PennEngineering and Jingyang are confident that the agreement fully addresses each of the points outlined” in the suit, stated PennEngineering president Mark Petty.

Danboro, PA-based PennEngineering develops and manufactures PEM self-clinching, broaching, weld and surface mount fasteners, SI inserts for plastics and Atlas SpinTite, MaxTite and Plus+Tite blind threaded inserts. PennEngineering’s fastener installation equipment includes Pemserter presses, In-Die and robotics capabilities, StickScrew system for small-screw insertion and Atlas tools. Web: pemnet.com
