Capability Statement

Wexmar (Backwell MFG LLC d/b/a Wexmar) is a precision CNC machine shop in Canastota, NY, building turned, milled, and Swiss-machined components for industrial OEMs and government buyers.

Company snapshot

Wexmar operates a full production machine shop at 121 W Center St, Canastota, NY 13032. Ten CNC lathes, six horizontal machining centers, and four Swiss-type machines run prototype through production, backed by an in-house CMM inspection lab and tool room. The company is a registered small business set up for both commercial OEM work and federal build-to-print contracting.

Core competencies

  • CNC Turning — bar-fed and chucking lathe work with live tooling and Y-axis, standard and metric threading, tight-tolerance shafts, pins, bushings, and fittings.
  • CNC Milling — 3- and 4-axis horizontal machining with pallet changers for housings, manifolds, flanges, and brackets.
  • Swiss Machining — high-volume small-diameter parts to 32 mm, lights-out capable.
  • Inspection & Quality — two Brown & Sharpe CMMs, optical comparator, calibrated gage library, FAI and full documentation.
  • Tool Room & Prototype — centerless and surface grinding, saws, and custom fixturing.

Differentiators

  • Turning, horizontal milling, and Swiss on one floor — multi-process parts never leave the building.
  • Every job can ship with a CMM report, material certs, and traceable heat lot.
  • Federal-ready: SAM.gov, CAGE, UEI, and WAWF invoicing already in place.
  • Sized for real production with second-shift capacity for demanding programs.

Materials

Carbon and alloy steels, 300/400-series and precipitation-hardening stainless, Nitronic 50 and high-nickel alloys, aluminum, brass, bronze, titanium, and engineered plastics. DFARS 252.225-7009 specialty-metals-compliant sourcing available.
