In the late 1970s, Walt and Daniel began repairing worn machine components in a small Los Angeles workshop. What started as a way to help local manufacturers avoid unnecessary replacement grew into a full-service operation grounded in craftsmanship, technical discipline and trust.

Their approach was practical: understand the failure, restore what could be restored and help the customer keep production moving.

Walt’s mechanical intuition and Daniel’s precision-focused engineering helped shape the standards that would later define NNG Industries. Their early work laid the foundation for the company’s capabilities across spindles, ballscrews, workholding systems and other critical machine components.
