CMM Machine Auctions in Dayton, OH
Dayton anchors Southwest Ohio's advanced manufacturing corridor, with aerospace (Wright-Patterson AFB adjacent), automotive components, CNC machining, and defense electronics manufacturing.
Dayton's aerospace and defense electronics suppliers operate under AS9100 quality systems, and the automotive component plants nearby run IATF 16949 programs, which makes coordinate measuring machines a fixture in quality labs across the metro. When one of those labs consolidates or upgrades near Wright-Patterson, the Zeiss or Hexagon CMMs that reach auction carry calibration and traceability records that aerospace and automotive buyers specifically look for. KD Auctions markets that documentation, along with the machine, to quality departments and Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers nationwide.
