NEW CAPABILITY

Recently, Bowman Tool & Machining, Inc. (BTM) made the decision to expand our business into gear-making.  BTM has done this by acquiring three used Fellows gear shapers, a 20-4, 20-5 and FS400-125 Hydrostroke.  This acquisition brings BTM closer to our goal of being a one-stop, full-service supplier to our customers.
