Machine Installation in Kewaskum, WI
Rigging, precision setting, and removal of industrial equipment for Kewaskum manufacturers, from a family-owned crew in the same county.
A small-town manufacturer’s installation partner
In a village the size of Kewaskum, a plant's machines are often the heart of its business, and an installation that goes wrong is felt right away. Machine installation from our crew is built to avoid that, with preparation, skilled rigging, and a final check on every placement.
Schumacher Machine Repair Company is a family-owned business based in Hartford, in Washington County, and we have served manufacturers throughout the region since 2003. As a family business ourselves, we understand what a single machine can mean to a small manufacturer.
A Village With a Metalworking Tradition
Kewaskum is a village mainly in Washington County, with a small part in Fond du Lac County, incorporated in 1895. The village traces its origins to a settler on a horseshoe bend of the Milwaukee River in 1852. Agriculture dominated through the 19th and early 20th centuries, the railroad arrived in 1873, and an aluminum cookware company founded in 1919 supplied military products during World War II.
That cookware story is a manufacturing story: forming and finishing metal on machines that had to be installed, kept level, and kept running. US 45 is the primary north-south highway through the village, and WIS 28 the primary east-west one. Whatever your plant makes today, we plan the installation of its machines the way a good manufacturer would, with respect for both the equipment and the people who rely on it.
What’s Included
For Kewaskum manufacturers, an installation project can include:
- Machinery rigging and equipment installation
- Moving and precision setting of new or relocated machines
- Assembly and disassembly to suit existing doors and aisles
- Conveyor system installations
- Robotic cell setup and integration
- Removal and replacement of older production equipment
Our Approach
We start with a conversation about the machine and what it does for your business, then walk the site to see what the installation will involve.
Because small plants do not have spare hands, we plan the work so that your team's involvement is clear and limited. For multi-step jobs, project management keeps one person in charge of the schedule.
Our crew carries out the rigging and setting with care, and when the machine is in place we check it and hand it over ready for production. Millwright services are available for ongoing upkeep.
