March 1, 2005 -  Pangborn Corporation, a leading global manufacturer of surface preparation equipment and service provider for the metals industry has appointed Randy Hudson as President and Chief Executive Officer. Hudson replaces Ron Stewart who will assume the role of Vice Chairman, and act as a liason for the Board of Directors.
Randy Hudson joined Pangborn Corporation five years ago and held the position of Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.
