About

Independent Workholding Engineers Since 1972

Founded in Wisconsin with an engineering-first mindset, Waukesha Machine & Tool began as a humble operation in a single-bedroom workspace. Through dedication to quality and an unwavering commitment to our customers, we expanded from that small room to our first facility on Pearl Street, and eventually to our state-of-the-art location on Nike Drive in 1999.
