Meredith Machinery Meredith Machinery strives to be the most capable and helpful machine tool distributor in the region. We are unique in several ways.

Meredith Machinery is the Midwestern US’s trusted expert in solving the most complex metal cutting challenges for any size business, leveraging 25 years of industry expertise and providing leading-edge CNC machine tools from premium global suppliers. With offices in both Louisville, KY and Indianapolis, IN, we are the area’s only full line machine Tool Distributor. In addition to machine Tools Sales, we offer High Quality Service, Engineering and Automation. We have many brands of machines to choose from. This allows us to offer the best machine for our customer’s particular need. This broad offering also increases the likelihood that we will have a particular type of machine that our customer may be looking for. We sell Standard Machines, CNC Chip Cutting Machines, Grinding Machines (both manual and CNC), EDM Machines, Swiss Machines, and Robots. Our business strategy is to have a product for virtually every metal cutting need. In many cases we have multiple choices, and in those cases, we need to learn more about our customer’s business to allow us to recommend the best product for their particular application. We have products for General Machine Shops, Tool and Die, Mold Shops, Production shops, Medical, Automotive, Aircraft, and Pattern making. Almost every type of firm that cuts metal to manufacture their products. Our people is an attribute that differentiates Meredith Machinery from other machine providers. Many distributors only provide sales and some level of service. Many of our competitors outsource some of their services.

Happy National Manufacturing Day!

Today, we’re celebrating the people, companies, and innovations that make American manufacturing possible.

For Meredith Machinery, manufacturing has been at the heart of what we do since 2000.

What started more than 25 years ago has grown into a team dedicated to helping manufacturers across Indiana, Kentucky and Puerto Rico to find the right CNC machine tools, automation solutions, tooling, service, and support to keep their operations moving forward.

Over the years, technology has changed. Machines have become more advanced. Automation has continued to evolve. But one thing hasn’t changed: the people behind manufacturing.

The machinists, engineers, programmers, operators, maintenance teams, business owners, and manufacturers who show up every day to solve problems, improve processes, and build what’s next.

We’re proud to be a part of this industry and even prouder to support the manufacturers who keep it moving.

Here’s to the people who make manufacturing happen.

On Monday, we highlighted the NT-Flex, a compact solution designed to maximize flexibility and productivity.

Today, we’re taking a look at another Nakamura-Tome Precision Industry Co.,Ltd. machine that tackles the same challenge from a very different approach.

Meet the JX-50 ATC Multitasking Machine.

Where the NT-Flex emphasizes two-turret flexibility, the JX-50 brings a dedicated ATC tool spindle and lower turret together with high-speed machining capabilities.
The result?

119 tools. 30,000 RPM. 3.3-second chip-to-chip. And up to 650 mm of turning length.

The JX-50 is designed to bring advanced multitasking capability to manufacturers who need to make the most of both their floor space and their machining capacity.

Want to see what makes the JX-50 different?

What if you could add machining capability without adding more floor space?

At Meredith Machinery, we’ve worked with the Nakamura-Tome Precision Industry Co.,Ltd. NT-Flex and have seen firsthand what makes this machine different.

For manufacturers familiar with traditional CNC lathes, the NT-Flex takes a different approach.

A conventional CNC lathe is primarily focused on turning. The NT-Flex combines two spindles, two turrets, and Y-axis milling capability into a compact multitasking machine.

That means more of the part can be completed in one machine and one setup.
Instead of:
Turning → moving the part → another setup → milling → another operation

The goal is to consolidate more of those processes into a single machine.

The NT-Flex is particularly well suited for smaller, complex components where manufacturers may need turning, milling, threading, and other operations, all while working within limited floor space.

And then there’s the NT-Flex+.

The NT-Flex+ builds on the same compact platform and adds even more flexibility with:
→ Y-axis capability on the lower turret
→ X-axis movement on the right/R-spindle
→ Optional retractable NC tailstock

These additions open up even more machining possibilities, including three-tool simultaneous machining.

What makes the NT-Flex series stand out isn't simply the number of features packed into the machine.

It's what those capabilities can mean for a manufacturer:
More operations in one setup.
More flexibility.
Less part handling.
And more capability without necessarily requiring more floor space.
For manufacturers producing small, complex parts, this can change the way they think about setups, workflow, capacity, and how they utilize their existing floor space.

We've seen firsthand how much capability Nakamura-Tome has built into this compact platform, and we're excited to continue helping manufacturers understand where a machine like the NT-Flex can fit into their production strategy.

Seeing robots everywhere lately?

That’s because automation is changing manufacturing.

From machine tending to lights-out production, manufacturers are finding new ways to put automation to work. And the numbers back it up: 71% of manufacturers plan to increase their investment in industrial automation in 2026.

And FANUC America Corporation is at the center of it.

If you’re heading to IMTS, automation will be hard to miss. This year, it’s one of the biggest topics of conversation across the show floor, with robotics, cobots and automation solutions being demonstrated throughout the show.

You can bet you’ll see FANUC robots in action throughout IMTS, showcasing just how many ways robotics can be incorporated into a modern manufacturing operation.

Want to talk with an expert about how you can incorporate FANUC robotics into your shop? Reach out to our team we’d be happy to talk through your automation opportunities.

We’ll see you, and the many robotics and automation solutions at IMTS in just a couple of weeks!

What if you could add serious machining capability without adding serious floor space?

Meet the Nakamura-Tome Precision Industry Co., Ltd. NT-Flex+, a compact multitasking machine built to deliver impressive capability in a small footprint.

With two spindles, two turrets, Y-axis milling on both turrets, and X-axis travel on the R-spindle, the NT-Flex+ gives manufacturers the flexibility to tackle complex parts with fewer setups. It can also accommodate up to 96 tools for maximum machining flexibility.

Want to see it in action? đź‘€

The NT-Flex+ will be running live at IMTS 2026 at the Methods Machine Tools, Inc. booth, machining medical device parts with bar feeder automation.

📍 South Building | Booth #339033
📅 September 14–19

Our Meredith Machinery team will be there too! Stop by, see the NT-Flex+ in action, and talk with us about what this kind of multitasking capability could do for your shop.

Small footprint. Serious capability. See you at IMTS!

Getting Ready for IMTS 2026!

We're excited to showcase a collaborative automation demo at IMTS featuring the FANUC CRX-5iA Collaborative Robot in partnership with Lexair, Inc. and SCHUNK.

This demonstration simulates a multi-operation machining process using Lexair's innovative workholding solutions, including:
One (1) Full Bore Chuck
Two (2) 16C Collet Closers

The FANUC CRX-5iA seamlessly transfers parts through each stage of the process while utilizing a SCHUNK collaborative end-of-arm tool (EOAT) for safe and reliable part handling. The result is a compact, flexible automation solution that demonstrates how collaborative robotics can help manufacturers increase productivity, improve process consistency, and maximize machine utilization.

As labor shortages continue to challenge manufacturers, collaborative machine tending has become one of the fastest-growing automation trends for job shops. Solutions like this provide a practical entry point into automation, offering quick deployment, ease of programming, and the flexibility to adapt to changing production demands without the complexity traditionally associated with industrial robotics.

We're looking forward to connecting with customers, partners, and fellow manufacturing professionals at IMTS to discuss the future of collaborative automation, advanced workholding solutions, and scalable manufacturing technologies.
