Testimonials

Thanks for the great work with this equipment. It’s running without any issues and the process is (more) friendly than other induction machines we have in the plant.

– Sonia

I appreciate the quick turnaround. It has been a pleasant experience working with everyone at Central Machines and the cap closer works well. We have closed over 23 million caps to date.

– Nick

Thank you so much for turning around those new upper punches which replaced the ones that were lost. We also appreciated the help getting them to us so we could run the mold. Your effort was much appreciated!!
