Machine Installation in Waukesha, WI
Rigging, precision setting, and removal of industrial machinery for Waukesha manufacturers, from a family-owned Southeastern Wisconsin crew.
Installation support for the county seat
A larger city means more plants, more building types, and more variety in the machines that need to be installed. Machine installation from our crew is built to adapt to that variety, starting with a careful look at each job before we decide how to approach it.
Schumacher Machine Repair Company is a family-owned Wisconsin business with its home in Hartford. Since 2003 we have rigged, moved, and set equipment for manufacturers throughout the region, and Waukesha is among the larger cities we serve.
Many Facilities, Many Different Jobs
Waukesha is the county seat of Waukesha County and sits along the Fox River. Historically it carried the nickname the Spring City. With a city of this size, no two industrial jobs look alike. One customer may need a single machine set on a prepared foundation, while another is reorganizing a department or relocating equipment between two buildings in the same area.
Road access is a strength. US 18, WIS 59, and WIS 164 run along the Les Paul Parkway bypass on the outskirts of the city, and US 18 no longer goes through downtown. For machinery deliveries and our own crew travel, that matters, but each job still depends on the details of the site. We treat every Waukesha installation as its own project and plan it from the walkthrough onward.
What’s Included
Waukesha projects can draw on any of these installation services:
- Machinery rigging and installation, from single machines to full lines
- Precision moving and setting, including relocations between buildings
- Assembly and disassembly for transport or limited access
- Conveyor system installation and integration
- Robotic cell setup
- Retirement and removal of replaced equipment, including plant consolidations and expansions
Our Approach
The first step is a site assessment. We review the layout, access, and the machine itself, and we identify any engineering support the project needs before equipment moves.
Multi-phase work, such as moving several machines over a period of weeks, is managed through our project management service so scheduling and oversight stay consistent from phase to phase.
We carry out the installation with our own crew, bringing rigging equipment when needed and working with trusted partners on especially large jobs. Millwright services can follow to align and maintain the machine once it is in place.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, both. A single machine and a full production line get the same attention to planning. The difference is mainly in how much coordination the project needs.
We assign a single point of contact, schedule each phase around your operation, and review progress with you as the work moves forward, so nothing depends on guesswork.
We can. Moving equipment between buildings on a campus is a form of relocation we handle regularly, and we plan the route, the rigging, and the final setting as one connected job.
Precision setting is part of the installation itself, and our millwrights are available for ongoing alignment and maintenance if you want continued support after the machine is running.
Call (414) 412-4994 or send a request through the contact form. A short description of the equipment and the facility is enough to begin, and we will set up a walkthrough from there.
