(Hexagon: North Kingstown, RI) -- Hexagon AB has announced the appointment of Andreas Renulf as president of its Manufacturing Intelligence division, effective May 1, 2025. Renulf will report directly to Norbert Hanke, interim president and CEO of Hexagon. Josh Weiss, the current president of Hexagon’s Manufacturing Intelligence division, is leaving Hexagon to join another company and will work with Renulf to ensure a smooth transition and handoff until his departure at the end of May.

Renulf has been with Hexagon since January 2024 as chief operating officer and head of machine control for the Geosystems division. During this time, he has played a key role in enhancing operational efficiencies within Geosystems by driving a culture of continuous improvement and collaboration across teams. Prior to joining Hexagon, he spent six years at Trelleborg, where he was president of two business units, holding full profit and loss accountability and driving both organic and M&A growth while maintaining strong cost controls.

Before this, Renulf held several leadership positions in diverse industries and companies, including 13 years at ABB, where he held a number of roles, including vice president for the oil, gas, and petrochemicals business unit in Asia, and vice president of marketing and sales for Process Industries Products. A Swedish national, Renulf holds a master’s degree in business administration from Jönköping International Business School. 

“Andreas has a strong track record of driving growth, profitability, and organizational excellence,” says Norbert Hanke, interim president and CEO, Hexagon AB. “I am pleased that he has agreed to join the executive management team in this key leadership role. Manufacturing Intelligence has an exciting future ahead as we increasingly embrace robotics and autonomy to optimize our customers’ product life cycles.

“Josh has contributed a great deal during his 10 years with Hexagon,” Hanke says, “particularly in his most recent role as president of the Manufacturing Intelligence division, where he has delivered strong improvements to profitability and cash conversion. I wish him all the best in his future endeavors.”
