C & C Machine Tool Inc.

Our Story

Founded in 2015, C & C Machine Tool Inc. was built from a simple idea: machine tool service should be as precise and dependable as the equipment it supports. What began as a small, family-operated shop in Blaine has grown into a trusted regional service provider and authorized sales partner for leading brands in the machining industry.

Our founder launched C & C Machine Tool Inc. after years of hands-on experience repairing and rebuilding lathes, mills, presses, and industrial machines across the Midwest. That same focus on craftsmanship, reliability, and personal accountability continues to guide the company today. Every repair, rebuild, or new installation we complete represents our commitment to helping manufacturers stay productive and competitive.

Over the years, we’ve earned a strong reputation for quality and responsiveness. Customers know that when they call C & C Machine Tool, they’re getting a knowledgeable technician, a realistic quote, and a fix that lasts. We’re proud to serve small job shops, large production facilities, maintenance departments, and educational institutions throughout Minnesota and the Midwest.

 Our Mission and Values

At C & C Machine Machine Inc., our mission is simple: to deliver precision, reliability, and value in every machine we repair, sell, or install.

We live by five key values:

  1. Precision: Every measurement, alignment, and rebuild is handled with professional accuracy.
  2. Integrity: We believe in straightforward communication, transparent pricing, and honest work.
  3. Innovation: Even when faced with older or unsupported machines, our team finds creative ways to restore performance and extend lifespan.
  4. Service: We treat each customer’s downtime as if it were our own, responding quickly to minimize disruption.
  5. Community: As a family-owned Minneapolis business, we value long-term relationships and take pride in supporting local industry and skilled trades.

These values are reflected in our approach to every project—whether it’s troubleshooting a worn headstock, retrofitting an ACU-RITE DRO System, or installing a brand-new machine.
