Welcome to the Arizona Chapter of
the
National Tooling & Machining Association
Welcome to the website of the Arizona Chapter of the
National Tooling & Machining Association
(NTMA). Our member companies are engaged in precision custom
manufacturing, including contract machining, tool & die making,
mold building and the building of special purpose machines for all
industries.

If you're interested in joining our association, please

The NTMA, which has 49 chapters
across the United States, is a nationwide, non-profit
corporation composed of approximately 1700 companies. The NTMA,
headquartered in the nation’s capital, serves as the
voice and lobbyist for the $40 billion a year contract
metalworking industry.
The Arizona chapter, representing
more than 101 Regular Member companies and 50 Associate Member
companies, was formed in 1972. Our website was created to serve
the networking needs of our members, but it can also be used as
a Buyers Guide to identify companies and their unique machining
capabilities. It can also be used as a forum to showcase the
career opportunities available within the Arizona precision machining industry.

The ATMA
conducted it's annual
Toys for Tots Holiday Fundraiser!
In 2008, the ATMA raised $4,800 which enabled us to make a donation to the

Marines!
Here is Sharon Colleran, the ATMA Executive Director,

Thanks to all
