LMC Workholding Celebrates 90th Anniversary

LMC Workholding celebrates its 90th anniversary in 2006. Formed as Logansport Machine Company in 1916, LMC remains privately held and engineers and manufactures high quality chucks and workholding equipment. LMC produces or supplies a wide range of workholding devices including international style power chucks and cylinders, wheel chucks, Neidlein face drivers and centers and Atling steady rests among other products.

LMC Workholding continually works to maintain a reputation for designing and building high quality chucks and workholding cylinders here in the United States. LMC is a U.S. manufacturer with international workholding product partnerships and is a member of the leading international supplier team of wheel machining products, The Okuma Wheel Cell Team members are Okuma, Chiron, Fanuc Robotics and LMC. LMC provides all the workholding for these aluminum wheel manufacturing cells.

In 1989, to expand its product offering, LMC became associated with Matsumoto Machine Company (MMK), a world-class leader in ISO-certified power chucks, rotary tables and other workholding devices. In 1993, the company formed an alliance with Neidlein Spannzeuge GmbH to sell Neidlein face drivers and live centers in the United States and Canada. In 2000 LMC expanded its U.S. manufacturing capabilities and capacity for a new line of LMC wheel chucks, a product line that has seen significant growth since then. LMC has continued to expand its manufacturing every year since due to increased demand. And in 2001, LMC coupled with Atlings Maskinfabrik AB, Ockelbo, Sweden, to sell and service Atling self-centering steady rests in the North and South American markets.

The addition of the Atling line gave LMC Workholding the ability to offer its customers a complete line of quality products.
