The company established a Missouri office in 1968, with one salesman covering the Kansas City metropolitan area, as well as the western half of Missouri. An Oklahoma City office was set up in early 1987 to provide better representation in the southwestern area of Oklahoma, with sales and service provided from this office. KOMT has always been service oriented, and to strengthen that quality a service department was established in 1979. It is manned by well-trained technicians, whose training continues as new innovations occur in the machine tool lines. The KOMT sales engineers have over 250 years of experience in the machine tool business with most of those years coming from KOMT.
