Gilman Precision’s Custom Products Create Solutions for Unique Industry Challenges

Gilman Precision in Grafton, WI, offers machining solutions for companies facing individualized challenges. The company often works with businesses from the Medical, Semiconductor, Aerospace, Automotive and Energy industries.

When it comes to machining, one-size-fits-all can’t always apply. With unique products comes individual production challenges.

That’s where Gilman comes in.

“Customers come to us with a problem, and sometimes our catalog products do not supply a solution for them,” Gilman CEO Chris Hetzer said. “In fact, over 70 percent of our products are engineered to order in some way.”

Hetzer said Gilman often works with companies in the Medical, Semiconductor, Aerospace, Automotive and Energy industries on finding these custom solutions.

Some examples of recently built custom components include: a multi-axis, double-ended spindle for use in machining large ship components; a custom spindle used in a rig to test automatic transmissions; a nickel-plated dovetail slide for the Energy industry and a motorized grinding spindle for the Aerospace industry.
