JPT: Over 50 Years of Custom Indexable Tooling & Manufacturing Excellence
For over 50 years, Joint Production Technology (JPT) has been a trusted leader in custom indexable tooling, precision machining, and advanced manufacturing. Originally founded in 1972 to serve automotive special machine builders, we provided custom tooling and motion-based actuation solutions that enhanced precision and efficiency.
As the industry evolved, so did JPT.
Therefore, we expanded our capabilities to support standard CNC machine tool builders, tier 1 suppliers, and manufacturers in the electric vehicle and diesel truck sectors.
