CNC repair in Beaver Dam
Dodge County's manufacturing hub
Beaver Dam and the towns around it make agricultural and industrial equipment, food products and components, supported by machine shops and fabricators. A lot of the fabrication is heavy: thick plate, structural shapes and weldments.
Heavy fab means press brakes, plate rolls, ironworkers and saws working hard. We keep them running and safe, and keep the machine shop equipment next to them accurate.
Beaver Dam is up Highway 151 from Madison, inside our Madison team’s area.

Everything on the floor in Beaver Dam
Press brake, shear and laser repair in Beaver Dam
Fabrication equipment works hard in Beaver Dam: press brakes, shears, lasers, punches, saws and plate rolls on every shift. We repair all of it on site, set shear blade gaps and flip blades, and tune press brakes so the first part bends right.
In Beaver Dam, we see this most at heavy fabrication: press brakes, plate rolls and ironworkers, with calls for sync, alignment and hydraulics. See press brake and shear repair and laser and plasma repair.
Robot cell and PLC repair for Beaver Dam plants
Our Madison team works on the automation around the machines too: Fanuc, Motoman and ABB robots, Allen-Bradley and Siemens PLCs, HMIs, light curtains and safety relays. Most Beaver Dam line stops come down to a sensor, a cable or a safety input, and we find it fast.
Equipment makers in Beaver Dam run machining centers and welding robots, and the calls we get there are alarms, cells and spindles. See robot and automation repair and PLC repair.
Control alarm repair for Beaver Dam machines
Most machines in Beaver Dam run Fanuc controls, with Siemens, Heidenhain, Mazatrol, Okuma OSP and Haas close behind. We clear alarms, restore lost parameters after a dead battery, repair drive and amplifier faults and bring back dead screens. We back up your control before we touch anything.
For Beaver Dam’s food producers, that’s lines, PLCs and drives. The usual calls: stops and sensors. See CNC control repair.
Conveyor, packaging and drive repair in Beaver Dam
When a packaging line stops in Beaver Dam, product backs up fast. We repair conveyors, case packers, wrappers, gearmotors, VFDs and hydraulic and pneumatic systems, and check the sensors and safety circuits that cause most line stops.
Shops off Highway 151 know the routine: call, tell us the machine and the alarm, and a tech heads over. See conveyor and packaging repair and motor and VFD repair.
Machining center repair for Beaver Dam shops
Mills are the busiest machines in most Beaver Dam shops, so they fail first. We repair tool changers and carousels, ball screws and axis drives, pallet changers, rotary tables, probing and coolant-through systems, and we leave a written note on what we found.
That goes for the big plants in Beaver Dam and the two-machine shops in Columbus alike. See CNC mill repair.
Lathe repair for Beaver Dam production shops
A lathe that throws a turret alarm at 2 a.m. costs a Beaver Dam shop a whole shift. Our Madison team repairs turret indexing, chuck cylinders, hydraulic units, bar feeders and live tool drives, and checks alignment before we leave.
We cover this work across Dodge County, from shops along Highway 151 to Mayville and Fox Lake. See CNC lathe repair.
Spindle, servo and hydraulic rebuilds in Beaver Dam
Some failures in Beaver Dam are a fix on the spot. Others mean the part is worn out: spindle bearings, servo motors, hydraulic pumps. Our Madison team diagnoses it on your machine, then quotes repair, rebuild and replace side by side before anything comes apart.
Shops in Horicon and Randolph call us for the same work. See spindle rebuilds and servo motor rebuilds.
CNC maintenance plans in Beaver Dam
A maintenance plan gives Beaver Dam shops the same checks on every visit, the numbers written down, and a heads-up on wear while it’s still cheap to fix. We plan visits around your production so machines are down as little as possible. Short on maintenance staff? We can deploy a tech to your Beaver Dam facility for multiple weeks while you hire, and help you find the right people.
Plans cover shops across Dodge County, including Juneau and Columbus. See maintenance packages.

Example call in Beaver Dam

- Fix. Re-taught the tool center point, replaced the worn cable and checked the wire feed.
- Prove. Welded test parts on the seam end to end.
The result. Back on the seam.
