| TMI Company
Background
As the leading independent U.S. manufacturer of can closing parts, Tool Makers International (TMI) has been producing seamer tooling for the canning industry for over 40 years.
Our Focus
TMI's manufacturing plant in Santa Clara, California is devoted exclusively to the production of seaming replacement parts and related components for the food, beverage, and packaging industry.
Our Facility
We pride ourselves on running a well-organized and efficiently run operation. State-of-the-art computer controlled machinery turn out high precision parts, holding tolerances of one-tenth of one-thousandth of an inch. Using over 85,000 pounds of stainless steel per year, seaming rolls and chucks are manufactured for a variety of can closing machines from vintage models to today's ultra-modern seamers.
Our Beginning
In the early 1960's, Tool Makers International began providing seamer tooling for major food canners in a fertile valley 50 miles south of San Francisco, California. The high tech industry gradually transformed the Santa Clara Valley into the Silicon Valley.
In response to that transformation, Tool Makers International expanded its customer base to include not only food and beverage processors, but canners of a wide range of products - from sports equipment, to motor oil, to paint supplies.
TMI's reach is global, with a loyal customer base in North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, China, and the Pacific Rim.
