Equipment To Rave About
James Roy,
Mavrik Manufacturing
We have many Amera-Seiki machines in our plant, and we purchased our first Amera-Seiki UTM-12 Coupling Solution over a year ago. We’ve been running 4½” API (8) round oil couplings and find this machine to be the best threading machine we have ever known!
Bill Awerkamp,
Awerkamp Machine Co.
It was simple. They had one (Amera-Seiki LT-50 CNC Lathe) coming in just like I wanted. I went and looked at it and, after their tech showed me how well-built it was, I bought it.
Thomas H. Addy,
Quality Engineering
The machine we wanted was too tall to fit into our building, but Amera-Seiki offered to customize the guarding so it would fit. No other machine company made this offer. We are very, very pleased with both machine and the customer service at Amera-Seiki!
Bill Awerkamp,
Awerkamp Machine Co.
Their tech came in and set it all up, explained it and let me do the test cut. (3 years later) we had a bad wreck that knocked the turret and headstock out of alignment which their man corrected in a few hours. We have had no other problems.

Working with Amera-Seiki, you never have to worry if they’re trying to take advantage of you.
Bill Awerkamp,
Awerkamp Machine Co.
I would recommend the Amera-Seiki. It (A-S LT-50 Lathe) is built well and I could not find a better one for even close to what we paid. It’s a good machine.
Randy Sherbeyn,
Springfield INC. (Springfield Armory)
We’ve been an Amera-Seiki customer for 18 years. We have 15 Amera-Seiki machines.
Ford B. Cauffiel,
American Steel Products Company
Excellent quality and service. I would recommend Amera-Seiki machines to others.
