What Valley Precision does

Valley Precision Inc. is a custom precision sheet metal fabrication and CNC machining services company founded in 1990 and headquartered in a 30,000-square-foot facility at 501 Delaware Avenue in Waynesboro, Virginia. The firm manufactures parts to customer-supplied drawings and CAD files, with production quantities ranging from 5-piece prototyping runs through 5,000-piece production batches. Core capabilities span laser cutting (LVD 4kW Fiber and CO2 lasers), CNC turret punching (LVD Strippit 1250H), CNC milling (HAAS VF3SS, VF4SS, Mini Mill, TMP1), press-brake forming (LVD and Wysong), MIG/TIG/spot/robotic welding, Pemserter fastener insertion, Finish Line brush deburring, powder coating, and electroplating (anodizing, iridite, zinc, chromates, nickel, tin, copper flash). Engineering teams work in Creo, AutoCAD, and SolidWorks, with ECI Job Boss ERP managing production tracking and bar-coded inventory hand-off to customer systems. Quality systems comply with ISO 9001:2015 and MIL-I-45208, supporting use in medical, electronics, and military-subcontractor end markets.

The company is privately held under sole ownership of Dan Drumheller, who acquired the firm with Walter Carter in 2003 and consolidated full ownership in 2019, after which the business executed a multi-year capital program: hiring engineers and quality staff, adding laser cutting, robotic welding, and automated deburring, and systematically replacing legacy machinery. Investment continued through the 2020 pandemic into 2024, taking on baking ovens, additional HAAS and Bridgeport mills, an automated bandsaw, and a six-foot shear, with management citing doubled throughput on the back of those additions. Revenue mechanics are project-based and quote-driven with no published price list; standard commercial terms are Cash on Delivery or credit card for new customers and Net 30 for established accounts after credit approval.

Go-to-market is direct B2B, with custom quotes generated from drawings and submitted via a website form, phone (540-942-3346), or [email protected]. The company targets electronics, medical equipment, and military-subcontractor buyers primarily along the US East Coast, with nascent international shipping; named customer relationships include multi-year supply partnerships with a motive-power charger manufacturer, ag-tech startup Allocortech, furniture maker Sit High Chair, technology-equipment firm TecLogix (since 2014), and metals distributor Wieland Provides. Distribution is exclusively direct from the single Waynesboro facility, with no reseller or marketplace channels; marketing relies on the company website, referrals, earned media (Fabricator Magazine feature, October 2024; Atlantic Union Bank client story), and local business networks including the Augusta County Chamber of Commerce.
