Buy or Sell a Machine Shop or Tooling Business

Machining and tooling businesses are specialized companies that provide custom fabrication and manufacturing services, primarily for industrial and commercial clients. These businesses play a crucial role in the manufacturing supply chain, offering precision machining solutions that transform raw materials into finished products or components with exact specifications.

Common Machining Businesses:

  • CNC Machining: Utilizing Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines, these businesses produce highly accurate parts by cutting, shaping, and milling materials such as metal, plastic, and composites.
  • Tool and Die Making: Crafting tools, dies, molds, and fixtures essential for manufacturing processes.
  • Prototype Development: Assisting clients in creating prototypes for design verification and testing before full-scale production.
  • Custom Fabrication: Offering tailored solutions for clients with specific needs that differ from standardized parts.
  • Automotive Machine Shops: The auto repair industry often employs machine shops to rebuild engines, fabricate custom parts, and enhance performance of vehicle drivetrains.

Whether you are considering buying or selling a machine shop or tooling business, having some context is important for evaluating individual businesses relative to the market. To that end, we have aggregated business for sale listing data of machine shops and tooling businesses, and surface key financial metrics and valuation multiples based on asking prices.
