Our Company
It all started in a garage.
15 years ago, veteran machinist Todd Anderson launched Chips
Tool Repair from his home garage in Minnesota. People often ask, “Who is Chip?”
Sorry, there is no Chip! Todd was inspired by all the tools that make chips. He sought a name that was
synonymous with all machining operations. Since then, Todd has created a large
and versatile machine shop filled with an experienced staff that can design,
build and repair virtually any product with quality and speed.
Like many of the nation’s industry leaders, Chips Tool
repair began in a garage, but it quickly expanded into a fully-equipped machine
shop. Chips Tool Repair strives to be the best through ongoing education and
the most up-to-date equipment. This allows the company to produce quality
products in a timely manner for every valued customer.
Our Founder
The man at the center of Chips Tool Repair is “hands on
machinist,” Todd Anderson.
Todd first set foot in a machine shop in his early twenties.
As Todd likes to say, he spent nearly two decades “climbing all over machines,
trying to make them work.” He machined parts in a high-production facility,
built dozens of new machines from the ground up, became a training coordinator
for hundreds of employees, and earned prestigious quality recognition honors
before setting out to start his own company, Chips Tool Repair.
He brings decades of leadership and tooling
expertise to each and every job as he personally oversees all work that passes
through the company doors every day.
