Wagner Machine Company

Wagner Machine Company We are a precision CNC machine shop producing a wide variety of parts using conventional and unconve In 1986 we purchased our first CNC mill and lathe.

We are a precision machine shop located in central Illinois. Our company was started on April 1 (no joke), 1982 by Werner and Elaine Wagner. They had, and still have a simple philosophy – run a lean business that makes high quality parts at a reasonable price. We have grown steadily for 30 years based on our reputation for doing just that. As part of that philosophy, we have never relied on advert

ising or salesmen. Instead, we invest in our company and our employees wisely, while letting our work speak for itself. We take pride in offering a wide variety of machining processes in house. Now we have more than 10 CNC mills and 15 CNC lathes, as well as surface, cylindrical, and centerless grinding capabilities. In addition to conventional machining, we also offer full 4 axis wire EDM, abrasive waterjet with taper compensation and full 5 axis Milling. We have experience machining an extensive list of materials from plastics, aluminum and steel, to stainless steel, exotic alloys, custom engineered materials, and fully hardened tool steels. We couple this experience with an equally wide variety of CAD/CAM software which is used by knowledgeable machinists who are always up for a challenge.

Our customers demand precision, and we deliver.

To meet requests for 100% inspection on critical, tight-tolerance features, we’ve invested in advanced inspection technology. We're even exploring solutions like CT scanning to ensure every part meets exacting standards.

Being comfortable with manufacturing these types of parts is one thing, but having the infrastructure behind the scenes to support it is something else entirely. We’ve been an ITAR-registered machine shop for years and are on track for CMMC Level 2 certification, which reflects the kind of security readiness, process discipline, and data-handling controls associated with defense contracts.

Achieving this certification doesn’t mean reinventing the business from scratch, as we’d already been doing much of what this level of compliance requires. Instead, it was more about normalizing and reinforcing a long-established, structured way of operating.

Our Wire EDM expertise goes beyond the basics. We’ve cut a wide range of complex parts from materials including steel, copper, and aluminum, each with precision and efficiency.

By cutting blanks with EDM, we streamline downstream operations and significantly reduce machining time. In fact, aluminum and copper cut up to 3–5x faster than steel, making EDM a smart choice for complex geometries and high-precision components.
