Northfield Foundry and Machine Co. was established in Northfield, Minnesota, in 1920 by the Machacek family. The company established a reputation for its application of hydraulics to woodworking machinery. Through the years, Northfield has also established itself as a manufacturer of custom machinery in areas other than the woodworking industry.
Part availability for current and discontinued machinery is excellent and is backed up by factory service technicians that can handle everything from tune-ups to complete rebuilds, both on site or at the factory.
