Nexton Bio, a company specializing in ultra-precision equipment manufacturing, held a board meeting on the 31st and announced the appointment of Lee Juhan, the current CEO of Roll Korea, as the new CEO.
At the board meeting, CEO Lee Juhan stated, “With the capabilities of Nexton Bio’s employees and the support of our shareholders, we will do our utmost to become the first mover in the ultra-precision equipment industry,” adding, “We will devote ourselves to growth by increasing domestic sales and operational capabilities and strengthening R&D capabilities.”
Founded in 1979, Roll Korea is a manufacturer of construction equipment parts, supplying construction hydraulic components such as Turning Joint and Steering Axle to domestic heavy equipment manufacturers. CEO Lee Juhan joined the company’s quality team in 1997, served as quality team leader and executive director of the heavy equipment division, and has contributed to Roll Korea’s stable growth and technological development as CEO since 2022.

A company official said, “Amid ongoing uncertain external conditions, this personnel decision aims to strengthen the expertise of each business and secure future competitiveness,” adding, “Through the new CEO’s streamlined management, we will solidify the business foundation and actively invest in discovering new growth engines.”
