Buell Automatics: A Trusted Precision Machine Shop Since 1966
Your Source for Consistent Results from a Precision Machine Shop
When you work in industries where every dimension, angle, and thread matters, you need a machine shop that can deliver parts with no surprises. That’s precisely what Buell Automatics has been doing for over five decades. We’re not just another vendor—we’re a precision machine shop that knows what it takes to turn raw materials into high-performing components for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) across automotive, aerospace, defense, medical, and more.
From our roots as a small shop in Rochester, NY, to becoming a trusted source for thousands of complex, tight-tolerance components, our focus has stayed the same: make parts that fit, function, and last. Buell Automatics is equipped to efficiently manage both low-volume first articles and high-volume production runs, ensuring precision, repeatability, and process control across all manufacturing stages.
Machining That Meets Your Standards—Every Time
At Buell, every cut, turn, and thread is handled with intention. We know that one flawed part can disrupt a whole system, and we take that seriously. That’s why we use the right machines for the job— Davenport multi-spindle screw machines for high-volume orders, CNC/Swiss turning centers for detailed, repeatable work, and small, intricate components. Each method is carefully matched to the material and the design, whether you’re working with aluminum, stainless steel, brass, or something more specialized.
Whether you require wear-resistant threading or precision knurling with a clean, functional finish, our expertise covers the full range of advanced machining processes — including external and internal threading, knurling, deep hole drilling, and more.

Buell Automatics specializes in precision CNC/Swiss machining services, delivering high-quality, durable, and reliable machined parts for a wide range of industries, with extensive industry experience. With state-of-the-art equipment and a team of skilled machinists, we are equipped to handle projects of any complexity or volume, from prototypes to high-volume production runs.
Davenport Screw Machine
When you need parts made right, you need a shop that understands both Davenport screw machines and the manufacturing process. At Buell Automatics, we’ve been helping companies solve production challenges since 1966. Here’s why manufacturers keep coming back to us for their screw machining needs.
Built for Tough Jobs, No Matter the Industry
Buell parts can be found in landing gear, surgical tools, hydraulic systems, and even kitchen appliances. Every part, no matter how small, plays a role in something bigger. That’s why we’ve earned trust across industries:
Aerospace
Defense
Heavy Equipment
Automotive
Medical
Consumer
Pneumatic
Communications
OEM
We specialize in complex machining challenges that others often avoid, including deep-hole drilling with high-pressure coolant systems and the machining of exotic alloys, just to name a few.
Finishing Touches That Matter
We don’t stop at machining. Our parts are often completed with finishing services, either in-house or through our trusted partners. These services include:
- Heat treating to strengthen components.
- Plating and passivation to add protection against corrosion and wear.
- Grinding and de-burring for smoother edges and safer handling.
These finishing operations give our clients a part that’s ready to install.
Experience That Shows in Every Part
Since 1966, we’ve been working closely with OEMs, designers, and engineers to turn their drawings into working components. Our team isn’t just trained—they’re seasoned. From quality inspectors to machinists, we’ve built a culture of care and problem-solving. Our inline inspection process upholds strict quality assurance standards at every stage, including comprehensive cross-inspection training for shipping personnel, ensuring all team members are equipped to identify issues—right up to the final line of defense.
Our quality management system (QMS) is ISO 9001:2015 certified and IATF 16949 compliant. We also meet ITAR and EAR requirements, which are especially important for defense, aerospace, and other regulated sectors.
