J&S Machine

What J&S Machine does

J&S Machine, Inc. is a privately held US distributor of metal fabrication equipment specializing in tube and pipe bending and cutting machinery. Founded in 1998 in Ellsworth, Wisconsin, the company began as a service operation providing machine upgrades, retrofits, and control package design before evolving into a capital equipment distributor representing four principal manufacturing brands: YLM (Ying Lin Machine Industrial Co., Ltd., Taiwan, founded 1976), 3C-C.L.O.M.E.A. (Italy), SIMASV (Italy, established 1950s), and MACKMA (MASSARO GROUP, Italy). J&S Machine holds the exclusive US distributorship for MACKMA pipe bending products since 2014 and serves as the authorized US service center and machine stocking location for YLM.

The product portfolio spans CNC rotary draw benders, NC benders, hydraulic, hybrid, and electric tube benders with capacities from 5/16" to 6" for YLM lines; roll bending machines (pyramidal, orbital, CRM/CR series) from 3C-C.L.O.M.E.A.; horizontal hydraulic bending presses and beveling machines from SIMASV; and all-electric non-mandrel pipe benders from 1" to 10" Sch.80 from MACKMA. Supporting offerings include automatic tube loading systems with CCD image inspection, metal cutting saws, Garboli planetary surface finishing machines, and proprietary numerical control systems with DXF import and spring-back compensation. YLM has sold over 18,000 sets of tube benders globally and SIMASV exports over 70% of production.

J&S Machine operates a sales-led, relationship-driven go-to-market focused on metal fabrication businesses across automotive, furniture, shipbuilding, HVAC, aerospace, construction, and job shop segments. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time equipment sales supplemented by parts, accessories, extended warranties, and professional services including R&D assistance, tooling design, in-house training, installation, and 24-hour after-sale service. With 1-10 employees and no disclosed funding rounds, the company operates as a small, specialized capital equipment distributor leveraging exclusive manufacturer relationships and technical service depth rather than scale.
