Company History

Roots of Craftsmanship and Proud Skill

Swissturn was established in 1987, but our roots go back to the craftsmanship found in watchmaking. The modern equipment that we use grew out of the high precision, high production watch making industry.

In July of 2013 we moved into our newly remodeled 25,000 square foot building. The move gave us the ability to efficiently layout our equipment and to organize employees into self-directed teams. Employees are trained to take full responsibility for their product, from the time they receive a work order, to the time it is packaged. Swissturn strives to be an innovative leader in the Swiss screw machine products industry.

Our roots are in 19th century craftsmanship, but we are a 21st century company. We are rooted in the knowledge and appreciation of the workmanship and pride of the skilled workers who came before us.

A 21st Century Workforce

We are proud of our facilities, but it is our workforce that makes us most proud. They know that they are part of a team dedicated to serving our customers by exceeding their expectations. Continuous training and education of all of our team members ensures that we stay up to date in all aspects of machining technology, quality systems, regulatory requirements, and customer service. We train soft skills to maintain an open communicative work environment and we plan for the future by developing of leadership skills.

Workforce Development Award

In 2020, Swissturn was recognized by the Worcester Business Journal with its Workforce Development Award.  This award is one of the magazine’s annual Manufacturing Excellence Awards.  We are proud to have been recognized for our efforts in developing a great workforce for the 21st century.
