Carlson Tool & Manufacturing, located in Cedarburg, Wisconsin, purchased their first JTEKT Machinery FA1050S in 2011. The production-focused company wanted to add more capabilities to their tool and contract machining division. After research, price comparisons and a recommendation from a local area shop, Carlson Tool decided JTEKT Machinery was the answer.
After success with their first machine, Carlson continues to expand their fleet with a range of JTEKT Machinery machines to develop their work envelope and increase capacity across the board.
Carlson Tool went with a range of JTEKT Machinery machines to meet their needs. Horizontal machining centers DELIVER UNMATCHED ACCURACY for heavy duty cuts, horizontal boring mills provide JOB FLEXIBILITY, and the five-face bridge mills offer EXCEPTIONAL CAPACITY for large parts.
