Started in 1981 by President Geoff Humberstone, MHV now offers high quality vacuum pumps and process equipment from vacuum coating systems to chambers for thermal processing of metals.
MHV also provides in-depth engineering, design, and services on a wide range of high-vacuum equipment, including remanufacturing of vacuum, booster and diffusion pumps and blowers.
"Our customers are demanding of high quality", says Humberstone: "so we strive to respond quickly with the best solution whether it's a full rebuilding job or totally new pumps and equipment".
"Our professional staff includes metallurgists, engineers, and factory trained machinists and technicians who are able to remanufacture most brands and models of vacuum equipment".
"Our new line of rotary piston vacuum pumps is totally made in the USA with high quality motors and components built from the ground up for long service life".
"We engineer and manufacture replacements for many hard-to-get components from Kinney, Stokes, Leybold and other pumps to keep customer equipment in service longer and help keep their costs under control".
"We see a bright future in our business and are adding a new world-class Mazak computerised machining centre that will more than double our present capacity", notes Humberstone.
The MHV plant now occupies a climate-controlled 1500m2 machining, assembly and testing facility on a 7Ha site near Fennville, Michigan.
This factory features a 25 x 60m open bay with a 9m ceiling height and 10t overhead crane with access to the entire building.
A 9 x 18m warehouse building holds cores and fixtures.
