Our Mission

To Provide Manufacturing Solutions That Solve Our Customer's Problems

Our History

Erickson Machine Tools has been developing metal working solutions for our hundreds of customers since Kenneth E. Erickson, Sr., after nearly 12 years in the machine tool business, began the company in 1960.  In the early 1980s, Kenneth E. Erickson, Jr. became president of the company upon his father's retirement.

Ken’s son Kurt is now President of Sales, and is taking on an increasing role in the management of EMT.  Kurt has been involved in EMT’s success since 1995 and became a Certified Machine Tool Sales Engineer in 1998.  He has also served on the Roland-Story School Board for 7 years, and continues to ensure a great education for his 3 children.  Kurt is steering EMT toward a customer-satisfied future.

When you partner with Erickson Machine Tools, you can count on us standing behind our products and service for generations to come.  We stay with you through the growing pains of your developing company, developing products, and developing markets.  We believe that every customer deserves the reliability offered by Erickson Machine Tools.  That’s The Erickson Difference!
