W.F. Wells, Inc is unique in the U.S. machine tool industry in that it has continued to manufacture its products in the U.S.A. while so many others are importing what they sell.
W.F. Wells, Inc provides bandsaws that handle the requirements of the metal cutting industry but also non-ferrous products such as glass, ceramics, graphite, crystals and wooden products. It is this versatility that has allowed us to expand in an ever-changing market.
Brief
History
Mr. William F. Wells (Bill) moved to Three Rivers, Michigan in 1925 and formed Wells Manufacturing, a manufacturer of vertical meat cutting saws. In 1928, Wells
Manufacturing developed the horizontal metal cutting bandsaw branded
the Wells Model #4. He later introduced the Wells Model #8, which is still in production today, known as the
Wellsaw Model #1016. Bill Wells sold his interest in Wells Manufacturing (now recognized as
Wellsaw) and in 1948 formed
W.F. Wells & Sons. The first saw model, M-9, was produced in 1949 and the company continued to produce, expand and refine their product line for the next 42 years.
In May of 1991, Mr. Robert F. Boyle, the owner of
Wellsaw, purchased
W.F. Wells & Sons from the Wells family. The company was renamed
W.F. Wells, Inc. and has continued to grow and add to its ever expanding product line.
