Delta Machinery builds tough tools

 
   


Herbert Hautz started Delta Machinery in 1919 in his garage. His goal was to provide power tools that could help woodworkers increase their efficiency. Within a few short years, however, Delta Machinery would grow to become one of the world's most innovative tool companies, offering never before seen tools that took much of the dull routine out of woodworking.

Delta woodworking machinery

The woodworkers of a century ago did most of their work by hand. While electric drills were beginning to be available more sophisticated power woodworking machinery was not yet available, and so carpenters and woodworkers relied on hand saws, planers, and chisels for most projects.

Delta woodworking machinery changed all that. Hautz's first product was a scroll saw that promised to shave hours off of complicated woodwork projects. His next product, the Delta "Handi-Shop" combined many different tools, including a lathe, sander, and scrolls saw, to offer a complete woodworking facility in just one tool station.

Today's Delta woodworking machinery builds on Delta's tradition of excellence. Using powerful and reliable electric motors, heavy duty construction, and tough as nails components, Delta's current product line offers both stationary and portable tools for your wood shop. Whether you need a table saw with an extended fence for large pieces or a portable compressor for your pneumatic sander, Delta makes a machine that is right for your job.

The powerful Delta shaper

One of the best Delta power tools is the Delta shaper. Delta machinery offers five different shapers for making your materials look just right. Delta shapers come with a heavy duty electric motor to ensure that you can work with even the hardest woods. They also have built in dust collection that connects quickly with your shop dust collection system.

With a Delta shaper you can always shape your wood to exact specifications. And a Delta shaper is built tough so that it can handle the stresses of this demanding task.

Delta machinery parts

Delta manufactures all its tools with high quality components, including heavy duty steel, aluminium, and plastics. Delta machinery parts are designed to stand up to repeated use, because Delta knows that serious woodworkers need serious tools to handle their projects. This is why serious woodworkers choose tools made by Delta Machinery.
