CNC repair in Manitowoc and Two Rivers
Lakeshore manufacturing heritage
Manitowoc built ships and cranes, and Two Rivers made aluminum cookware and products, and both cities still have strong manufacturing: heavy fabrication, aluminum products, food and the machine shops that support them.
Heavy fabrication means big plate work: large press brakes, plate rolls and cutting tables. Aluminum products mean fast machining and plenty of tool changes. We work on both, plus the hydraulics and controls behind them.
Manitowoc and Two Rivers are on I-43 along the lake, between Green Bay and Sheboygan.

Everything on the floor in Manitowoc and Two Rivers
Press brake, shear and laser repair in Manitowoc and Two Rivers
When the press brake won’t hold angle or the laser’s cut quality falls off, a Manitowoc and Two Rivers fab shop’s whole schedule backs up. Our Green Bay team repairs hydraulics, synchronization, crowning and back gauges on press brakes, and motion, height control, heads and chillers on lasers and plasma tables.
In Manitowoc and Two Rivers, we see this most at heavy fabrication: plate rolls, press brakes and cutting tables, with calls for alignment, sync and cut quality. See press brake and shear repair and laser and plasma repair.
Packaging line and VFD repair for Manitowoc and Two Rivers plants
Food, paper and packaging plants in Manitowoc and Two Rivers need one team that can fix the line and the toolroom. Our Green Bay team handles conveyors, drives, motors, hydraulics and pneumatics, along with the CNC machines that make the change parts.
Food plants in Manitowoc and Two Rivers run lines and drives, and the calls we get there are stops and trips. See conveyor and packaging repair and motor and VFD repair.
Vertical, horizontal and 5-axis repair in Manitowoc and Two Rivers
From a single Haas VF in a two-man shop to a line of Makino and Okuma horizontals, our Green Bay team works on the mills Manitowoc and Two Rivers actually runs. Tool changer misfires, axis drift, way cover damage and lube alarms are the everyday calls, and most get fixed in one visit.
For Manitowoc and Two Rivers’s aluminum machining, that’s high-speed machining centers. The usual calls: spindles and tool changers. See CNC mill repair.
Fanuc, Siemens and Haas control repair in Manitowoc and Two Rivers
Most machines in Manitowoc and Two Rivers 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.
Our Green Bay team handles it anywhere around Manitowoc and Two Rivers, including Two Rivers and Valders. See CNC control repair.
Robot cell and PLC repair for Manitowoc and Two Rivers plants
A robot cell that faults out or a PLC line that won’t restart stops more than one machine in Manitowoc and Two Rivers. Our Green Bay team finds the cause, whether it’s a sensor, a safety circuit, a servo, a program or a network fault, and gets the line moving.
Shops off I-43 know the routine: call, tell us the machine and the alarm, and a tech heads over. See robot and automation repair and PLC repair.
Lathe repair for Manitowoc and Two Rivers production shops
Turning centers, Swiss-types and VTLs all come through our Manitowoc and Two Rivers work orders. We check turret alignment, hydraulic pressure and spindle runout along with the alarm, so the lathe holds size when it goes back into production.
That goes for the big plants in Manitowoc and Two Rivers and the two-machine shops in Kiel alike. See CNC lathe repair.
Spindle, servo and hydraulic rebuilds in Manitowoc and Two Rivers
Manitowoc and Two Rivers shops get spindle repair and rebuilds, servo motor repair and rebuilds, and hydraulic pump, valve and leak repair from the same team that fixes the rest of the floor.

Example call in Manitowoc and Two Rivers
High-speed spindle running hot on aluminum work
The call
An aluminum machining shop in Manitowoc noticed a machining center spindle running hotter than usual.
What we did
- Diagnose. The spindle chiller’s coolant was low and its filter was clogged; bearings were still healthy.
- Fix. Serviced the chiller, replaced the filter, refilled and bled the system.
- Prove. Spindle temperature stayed normal through a long high-speed run.
The result. Caught before it cost a spindle.
