Our History

 

Absolute Machining Solutions was founded in 2014 by Brandon Blackwell. Brandon recognized a need for a precision machine shop, specifically for the pulp industries for slitters and blades. AMS has had an abundance of success and has grown into the ammunition and recreation industries.

Brandon and his employees at AMS understand the importance of customer service. They are meticulous about not only the parts they manufacture but also about the paperwork and turnaround time.

AMS does not hesitate to go the extra mile. We regularly provides on-site technical support, pick-up and delivery, and anything else you might need to make this transaction as smooth as possible.

The crew has over 100 years of diverse machine shop experience. Together they strive to go beyond industry standards. We would very much appreciate the opportunity to earn your business.
