Background:<br />
Industry – Precisionmatics is a manufacturer of precision machine parts used in the<br />
aerospace, firearms, medical and specialized industrial markets and designed according to<br />
customer specifications.<br />
Company History - Precisionmatics was established in 1970 and is a privately owned<br />
company. Located in a 28,000-square-foot building in the town of West Winfield, the<br />
Company started out making machinery parts that other companies did not manufacture.<br />
Precisionmatics pioneered the use of Computer Numerical Control (“CNC”) equipment in<br />
the 1980’s when other companies were using manual machines. CNC equipment refers to<br />
automated machine tools that operate on computer programmed commands. The<br />
Company remained competitive by specializing in CNC tuning and other high technology<br />
models. One of the Company’s early customers was Simmonds Precision of Norwich, New<br />
York; today, it is known as GE/Unison, a world leader in aviation technology.<br />
Precisionmatics’ top three customers are Goodrich Aerospace, Union Industries and<br />
Remington Arms.<br />
The Company operates a state of the art facility with over fifty CNC lathes, mill/turn lathes,
