Who We Are

A full-service machine & fab shop

Gahring Machine Inc. has been turning raw steel and aluminum into finished parts and equipment since 1977. From our shop in Van Horne, Iowa, we run CNC and manual machining alongside a full fabrication and welding floor — so a job can go from print to plasma to weld-out to paint under one roof.

We work for industrial manufacturers and for the farmers and ag dealers around us. That means one day it's a precision machined bracket and the next it's a loader bucket, a grain-cart repair, or a structural stair package. Whatever it takes to keep your operation running.

What We Do

Services built around your part

CNC machined aluminum parts

CNC Machining

CNC and manual turning and milling in steel, aluminum, and alloys — one-off parts, repairs, and production runs held to print.

Steel fabrication in the shop

Fabrication

Cutting, forming, and assembly of frames, weldments, tanks, and structural steel — from a single bracket to a full build.

Welded custom bucket

Welding

MIG and TIG welding on steel, stainless, and aluminum, including custom buckets, attachments, and heavy weldments.

Machined replacement part next to worn original

Repair

Worn or broken part? We re-machine, rebuild, and fabricate replacements — often faster than chasing down an OEM.
