What we do

One-offs to 10,000 pieces.

Our team concentrates on three things: designing and building prototypes, repairing existing components, and running 1 to 10,000 piece production lots, with supervisors and machinists working hand-in-hand on every order.

  1. Prototype parts

    Design support and one-off prototypes built from your drawings, sketches or a sample part.

  2. Repair existing components

    Rebuild, re-machine or reverse engineer worn parts, often in a longer-lasting material.

  3. Production runs of 1–10,000

    Competitively priced lots from a single piece to 10,000, with in-process inspection throughout.

Our story

From a 20×40 garage to 16,000 sq ft.

Founded after World War II by three partners, J. Howard Deming, Fred Zoller and Al Saddler, Tri-Kris started as subcontract machining in an old Lansdale garage. Today it is family-owned and still serving industry locally and nationwide.
