The quick story on how we got started…
Adrian Martinez Senior, and his eldest son, Adrian Junior, established Progressive Machining CNC, Inc in Stanton, California in 1995. Adrian Sr, began his career as a machinist at the young age of 16 years old working for his older brother, whom owned a small plastic injection business. After years of learning the tool maker, mold maker, and machinist trade, he was quickly recruited by other companies seeking his expertise. Finally, he landed a job as a shop foreman for a company that manufactured military rotary switches. He was employed with that company for 19 years, until his life long dream of starting his own machine shop in 1995. Adrian Sr and his son Adrian Jr, whom a year earlier had been honorably discharged from the United States Marine Corps, took out a loan and purchased an EZ-Track Bridgeport Mill and a EZ-Track Romi Lathe. Shortly after, his other son, Benjamin, and his nephews, Alex and Rey, joined Progressive Machining CNC, Inc. With 45 years of machining experience, we can say we have been lucky enough to be around for more than 20 years in a very competitive industry. The reasons we have been able to stay in business are very simple, COMMITMENT TO OUR CUSTOMERS, QUALITY PARTS, AND ONE OF THE FASTEST LEADTIMES IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. Progressive Machining CNC, Inc is 100% family owned and operated business, we can literally say our family’s livelihood depends on the quality and services we provide. Some of our customers have come to know us as the “Overnight Shop”. If you have rush jobs that can’t be handled or met by other shops, please give us the opportunity to help your company stay on schedule and increase your bottom line.
