From their modern 500,000-square-foot plant and technical center on an 80-acre campus near Cincinnati, Ohio, they engineer and build our Laser Cutting Systems, Automation, Press Brakes, Shears, Powder Metal Presses, and Additive Manufacturing, to the standard of ruggedness required in the North American market – with premium engineering features that stand up to years of rigorous use in demanding environments.

Their drive is evident in the design of their machines, controls, and software. They developed the first linear-motor-driven laser cutting systems, and still produce their own linear motors, controls, and software – unique in the industry.

Their machines’ endurance is legendary. It is common to see Depression-era CINCINNATI press brakes and shears in daily use today. In fact, one of their first commercial laser cutting systems from the eighties is still in operation. This means a low cost of ownership for our customers and high resale values.

CINCINNATI machines consistently top owner surveys for dependability and satisfaction. They sell direct in the U.S. and our service technicians are factory-trained employees. Parts are ordered through and shipped from their corporate headquarters in Harrison, Ohio.

They continue to demonstrate a young outlook and willingness to embrace new ideas and technology – while staying true to their heritage.
