Why Steelcrest Precision

How you'll learn Experienced operators train the people coming up. You'll learn on the machines you'll actually run, alongside people who've been on them for years, with formal check-ins at 30, 60, and 90 days that go both directions. With more than 100 CNC machines across turning, milling, grinding, EDM, and fabrication, there's room to cross-train and keep adding to what you can do.
What you'll make Our parts go into aerospace and defense programs, medical devices, automotive tier supply, food and beverage equipment, agricultural and construction machinery, consumer products, and warehouse automation. Some are one-piece replacements for equipment that's been out of production for decades; others are recurring production releases. Tolerances run to ±0.0002 inch, verified on Hexagon CMMs before anything ships.
Why it holds Steelcrest has been machining in Wauseon since 1983 and is part of the Wauseon Company family of brands. We're ISO 9001:2015 certified, which means the processes you'll work to are documented rather than improvised. And we're still growing — which is what creates the openings to move up, or move across into quality, programming, or another department entirely.

ON THE FLOOR

Turning Run 28 CNC lathes, from Swiss machines producing small precision parts to large-capacity turning up to 26 inches in diameter and 160 inches long.
Milling Work across 36 vertical and 8 horizontal machining centers, including five 5-axis machines and large-format mills that handle parts up to 120 inches.
Grinding & EDM Hold the tightest tolerances in the shop — down to ±0.0002 inch — on OD, surface and Blanchard grinders, honing equipment, and seven EDM machines.
Fabrication & Assembly Take machined parts through coating, component assembly, and assembly integration, so finished sub-assemblies go out the door instead of loose parts.
Programming & Engineering Turn customer prints and 3D models into machining programs, and work with customers early to simplify parts before they reach the floor.
Maintenance Keep more than 100 CNC machines running, from preventive maintenance to getting a machine back in cycle when it goes down.

OPERATIONS & OFFICE

Quality Verify parts on Hexagon CMMs running PC-DMIS, plus MicroVu, OGP SmartScope, and Keyence vision systems, and build the documentation that ships with every job.
