Wackel’s Machine Shop Crete, Nebraska · Hurco CNC · SolidWorks · Prototype to production Capabilities · Full-service job shop Open capacity now One shift · ~50% capacity 7,000 sq ft online early 2027 Precision CNC milling and turning from first article through repeating production. Four Hurco mills cover everyday fixtures through 84-inch plate; two slant-bed lathes handle shafts and chuck work. We work in SolidWorks — send a part file or a print and we will review manufacturability before the quote. Cells are on one shift at about half load. A 7,000 sq ft building enters service early 2027 for added equipment. Getting ISO certified with plans to be completed by then end of 2026.
