Ever wondered what it takes to run a fifth-generation machine shop that hits up to 100 spindle hours a week?
In this video, we take you inside a fifth-generation machine shop that’s dedicated to precision and efficiency. Founded in 1945, this family-owned business has evolved with the times, now specializing in aerospace, custom tooling, and advanced machining. What sets them apart? Their exclusive use of DMG MORI machines and their in-house tool manufacturing.
Join us as we explore how they make the most out of their high-tech equipment, averaging 80 to 100 spindle hours per week (although not every week!), and running lights-out machining with advanced automation. You'll also get a look at their custom-built tooling, which allows them to maintain complete control over quality and accuracy.
From five-axis mill-turn operations to modular fixtures that can be swapped between machines in minutes, this shop knows how to stay flexible, efficient, and competitive. Plus, we’ll show you their temperature-controlled facility and how they handle complex processes like grinding, custom tool creation, and more.
If you’ve ever wondered how a machine shop can push for 100 spindle hours a week while creating its own precision tools, this is the video for you!
