King Machine, LLC. has more than 30+ years of manufacturing expertise in the Pacific Northwest. The original owner started King Machine in 1978 and ran it until 2013 when he sold it to a group of local machinists wanting their own company. King Machine had always done aerospace work, but for older airplane programs that were drawing based, like the Boeing 747 and 767. They didn’t have the ability to work effectively with newer, digital only programs designed in CATIA. “The company needed an upgrade in technology and tools to compete on newer airplane programs,” explains vice president and general manager Dale Lyski. “The first thing we did after the sale was complete was invest in technology. We purchased CATIA, VERICUT and a Brown and Sharpe CMM.” For Dale and his partners these were the bare bone necessities needed to compete in the current marketplace. King Machine was an attractive purchase because it already had a Boeing supplier code, ISO certification, and a quality system. This was the foundation needed to grow the company without having the added hassle and expense of starting from scratch. “When we took over on August 6th, 2013 there were 12 people working here with barely enough work to keep them busy. We now have 42 employees on staff and our sales have grown at a similar pace.”
