This is just idle curiosity. Is the 'new' Rockwell tool company in any way related to the old Rockwell tool company which was sometimes related to the 'old' Delta tool company? I know that at times some machinery, including my bandsaw was labeled Rockwell/Delta, or Delta/Rockwell.
I know that Delta was owned by Pentair, sold to Black & Decker, and then sold again to the new Taiwanese owners. What I am wondering is whether the Rockwell name was still associated with Delta when all this happened.
So, was Rockwell out there all the time making some sort of product, and just got back into tools, or is it just another case of a venerated company name being bought up by some holding company?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Thanks,
