Schmid Tool Manufacturing Solutions Provider specializing in high volume MIL spec machined components. We have been in business since 1943 in the Chicago area.

Schmid Tool and Engineering is a third generation, small, woman owned, family business.

We handle many government contracts as the primary and secondary supplier. Our philosophy is to manufacture parts for our customers with the hi

ghest degree of quality, with the best service to meet the customers needs. We are ISO (9001:2008) compliant. Our measuring capabilities are traceable to the NIST, with real time SPC visibility on the manufacturing floor. Our engineering department utilizes Unigraphics and Solidworks™ software for our design work coupled with MasterCam™ software to implement our designs into our production.

Signs you work in a real CNC machine shop: oily bins, coolant spills, dirty rags, and machines running all day long.

Behind every precision-machined component is a shop floor full of hard work, attention to detail, and the people keeping production moving.

A great manufacturing company isn’t built by machines alone.
It’s built by people who show up every day, support each other, and create a culture worth being part of.

One small tradition at Schmid Tool & Engineering, we recognize the moms on our team each Mother’s Day.

Appreciation matters.

High volume changes everything.
What works for 100 parts doesn’t work for 10,000.

Hydromat machining is built for scale - simultaneous operations, consistent output, and efficiency that traditional processes can’t match.

That’s how you reduce cost per part without sacrificing quality.
