El Paso, Texas
CNC Service for El Paso Manufacturers
Our Waterloo, IA facility sits 1288 miles northeast of El Paso — about 22 hours one-way — a long-haul route on the road, a long-haul route from Waterloo — most 1288-mile work runs ship-in via freight, with field service for major jobs by arrangement. We work with El Paso shops doing supply-chain machining for copper smelting and oil refining, plus in-house tooling work for University of Texas at El Paso and Fort Bliss. Three lines of work for these shops: CNC machine repair, spindle rebuilds and grinding, and replacement way-cover manufacturing. We diagnose on-site where the work warrants it; the rebuild bench is in Waterloo.
