Investment in new equipment continues to drive Milwaukee’s Church Metal Spinning Co. to new heights in the market. Church Metal’s new 5-axis lasers and 3D programming equipment have increased opportunities for the company among new and existing customers and, according to president Mark Verhein, has allowed it to continue to add jobs, as well.
Church Metal strives for continuous improvement and works hard to address the challenges associated with effectively integrating new parts and programs into its production stream.
Church Metal Spinning prides itself on its ability to help its customers grow, Verhein said.
“Our current customers want us to provide more parts and high-value-added parts,” he said. “They know we have performed for them in the past and they want to depend on us to help them grow their businesses.”
Words of advice
“The best advice I ever received was from one of our largest customers. After I gave him a litany of why his order was late, he responded, ‘Mark, I just want my parts.’ There are always impediments to your performance. We make sure those impediments don’t impact our ability to provide parts. Whenever we run into difficulties, we recite those words and work to overcome.
