Company Profile


Bill Murphy. Learn more about ATS Workholding

In 1978, Bill Murphy was in need of a Collet Chuck to work with Warner & Swasey collet pads. He ordered one as an accessory to a new machine and, after 6 months waiting for delivery on the chuck he decided to make one himself. After using it a short time, he noticed it was improving his machine's efficiency. He decided to try a 5C collet chuck too. They were really hard to come by, never being readily available off the shelf. This too was a great product; his friends saw it and started asking him to make them for their machines. From there it proliferated. Bill and Wes Bakke decided to start a company that manufactured and inventoried collet chucks for the entire manufacturing industry. Advanced Tool Systems officially opened its doors March 1, 1981.

  • Online Tools Improve Customer Satisfaction

    As companies look to provide the best service possible to their customers, much attention should be given to convenience. Streamlining processes through ease of operation can help customer satisfaction in the buying process.

  • Reestablishing A Name In Bar Feeders

    To keep its well known line at the forefront of the minds of those in the market for a bar feeder, this company completely redesigned its product. Features such as a see-through cover and Direct Connect programming through the machine tool's CNC demonstrate the results of this focused effort.

  • Redesigned Bar Feeders

    Addressing the skilled help shortage common in today's machine shops, ATS Systems has redesigned its bar feeders to create the ML series. The ML-565 and ML-580 bar feeders are intended to make setup fast and easy for even inexperienced operators. Both bar feeders feature a remote handheld with built-in setup wizard.

  • Applications Determine Workholding Solutions

    Every turning application has a number of factors that should be considered when making the decision between a collet or a three-jaw chuck.
