History of
Anpec
Industries, Inc.
"In
1968 Anpec began as a general
machine shop using manual lathes and
mills in a 5,000 square foot building."
Today,
Anpec is a 26,000 square foot, fully
air conditioned facility with
twenty pieces of Mazak CNC equipment,
including multiple axis lathes, and
vertical and horizontal multi-pallet
machining centers.
Anpec
acquired its first CNC lathe in 1973
and a second in 1978
leading to an expansion to 8,000 square
feet. After weathering the 1981 recession,
the company first started production
machining of forgings for forging
houses. This led to a period of steady
growth throughout the 1980's.
1990
the company expanded its
CNC equipment to include six Mazaks,
three lathes and three Vertical milling
machines. In the middle 90's the company
underwent reorganization with the
retirement of two of the original
three founders. Doug Allen and Brad
Wagner stepped up to ownership roles
and brought with them the latest technology
in manufacturing, shop management
and quality programs.
 This
resulted in an expanded customer base
into new markets while continuing
to focus on high quality machining
of customer forgings, primarily in
the recreational vehicle ( ATV's and
motor-cycles) industry. This has required
precision machining to specifications
within .001".
From
1995 to 2005, Anpec has expanded to
a 26,000 square foot,
fully air conditioned facility with
twenty pieces of Mazak CNC equipment
including lathes, vertical milling
machines and horizontal milling machines.
It also possesses in house internal
broaching capability. In 2002, Anpec
achieved ISO 9001:2000 registration.
Anpec
continues to grow with
the latest building
expansion (13,000 square feet in 2003)
to accommodate all of Anpec's present
customers, as well as provide ample
space for rapid expansion of future
manufacturing activities. In 2002,
Anpec achieved ISO 9001:2000 registration.
