French Enhances Manufacturing Capabilities

French Oil Mill Machinery Company has enhanced our manufacturing capabilities with the purchase and start up of a new CNC Lathe.

“We are committed to providing our customers with best-in-class, high quality equipment and parts, manufactured in our Piqua, Ohio facility” said French’s President, Jason P. McDaniel. “Investing in our own manufacturing operations doesn’t just benefit us, but it directly benefits our customers as well.”

The automated, high-powered turning center features updated programming that creates internal operating efficiencies in our process, allowing us to pass on reduced part costs to our customers. The lathe’s advanced technology yields higher quality parts with improved cutting accuracy and superior part surface finishes. The larger, 80” machine bed increases the overall size of our turning and manufacturing capability.

French Oil Mill Machinery Company is a family-owned company that custom designs, manufactures and supports hydraulic presses for molding rubber and composite materials, rubber mixers, screw presses for synthetic rubber processing and for the separation of liquids from solids, and oilseed equipment used to extract vegetable oil from seeds and nuts, and to produce biofuels. For over 113 years, French has partnered with our stakeholders, in over 80 countries worldwide, to provide products with superior value and superior service that improve customers’ productivity and reduce their overall production costs. Our 225,000 square foot corporate office and manufacturing facility are located in Piqua, Ohio.
