More Than Maintenance
Research
& Development
Beyond repairing or replacing worn assembly machine parts, roughly 15% of our Tool Shop’s time is dedicated to product research and development. Working hand-in-hand with our sales and engineering teams, the shop designs and builds pilot tools, such as single- or two-cavity molds, to quickly test new ideas. Once a product is approved, it is handed off to our Keene-based Automation and Engineering team, who will design and build the machines required for high-speed assembly.
Decades
of Experience
Our team of skilled machinists boasts decades of hands-on experience. While we stay ahead of the curve with automation and innovation, we never lose sight of the human skills that drive our success.
Responsive
Solutions
With over 20,000 spare parts catalogued and a trusted network of local suppliers, we can quickly respond to our customers' needs, minimizing production downtime.
