Machine Installation in Hartland, WI
Rigging, precision setting, and removal of industrial equipment for Hartland businesses, from a family-owned crew based in Hartford, Wisconsin.
A Hartford crew for Hartland equipment
Hartland and Hartford are different places, and it is worth being clear about which one we call home. We are in Hartford, in Washington County, and we regularly work in Hartland. Machine installation is a core part of what we do there: careful rigging, accurate placement, and clean removal of equipment that is being replaced.
Schumacher Machine Repair Company is a family-owned business that has served Wisconsin manufacturers since 2003. We approach every job the same way, with a site visit, a written plan, and a final check.
Working Along the Bark River
Hartland is a village in Waukesha County, in the Lake Country area, and it sits along the Bark River. WIS 83 crosses over the WIS 16 freeway in the village, so both routes are close at hand for deliveries and for our own crews.
Being near a river and a lake region has a practical meaning for industrial work. Sites can have varied terrain, and yards and loading areas are sometimes limited by the land around them. We account for that on our visits, looking at grade, surface, and space for a crane or forklift to operate, so the rigging plan fits the ground it will happen on.
What’s Included
A Hartland machine installation can include:
- Rigging and equipment installation for new machinery
- Moving and precision setting in your existing layout
- Assembly and disassembly of machines with tight access
- Conveyor installations to link stations
- Robotic cell setup and integration
- Removal of outgoing equipment and reinstallation projects
Our Approach
We begin with a site visit that covers the building and its surroundings. We note the grade, the surface, the door sizes, and the path the machine will follow from the truck to its place.
We then assemble a plan that covers equipment, people, and timing. Projects that need engineering input are supported by our CAD and engineering team, and larger ones are coordinated through project management.
The installation itself is done by our crew with attention to precision. We check the machine against the plan, make notes on anything unusual, and hand the area back in good order.

Either. We can handle the entire project from removal through installation, or step in for part of it, such as setting a machine your own team has already moved.
Yes. Our engineering team works in AutoCAD and SolidWorks and can prepare a layout so the machine's final position is agreed before the lift.
