CNC tombstones custom engineered for more throughput, tighter tolerances

Get tighter tolerances, faster setups and more uptime with AME’s CNC tombstones. Each tombstone is machined to industry standard tolerances creating repeatability in your high-mix or high-volume workholding operation – and we do it faster. Quick-response tombstones ship in just two or three weeks. 

Tired of scrambling to fix down lines? 

Jams, instability, and downtime kill your throughput and quality goals. One malfunctioning piece of auxiliary equipment brings your entire line to a halt, while you scramble to find a fix. Instead, work with Hennig, our sister company, to custom engineer a more reliable Machine Tool Ecosystem. For example, we’ll help you with:  

Machining through the night to improve throughput • Chip jams and downtime
Preventing tool wear and pull-force issues • Inconsistent cuts and surface finishes

Get the most from your CNC machines with

complete CNC machine tool ecosystems

AME is a family-owned company that has worked on the floor with operators, engineers, and OEMs for decades.

Together we build auxiliary equipment that improves productivity with less effort and expense.

Your shop growth roadmap, powered by Hennig's Machine Tool Ecosystem.

You’ve got big plans for your future operation, but you may not be able to realize them all right now. Building out a complete system-engineered ecosystem with Hennig and AME delivers immediate performance gains through well-matched components, while enabling phased upgrades. This allows you to:   

  • Eliminate costly upfront fit and function headaches 
  • Add advanced workholding without re-engineering 
  • Layer on capabilities like automation and high-pressure coolant systems  

Heavy-duty construction as standard (not an upcharge)

Stronger components enable longer unattended cycles and reduce fatigue from manual intervention or unexpected stoppages. Hennig’s standard builds are designed for harsh environments and demanding cycles. You can count on: 

  • Thicker sheet metal 
  • Reinforced conveyor chains  
  • Robust sealing 

Application-driven customization 

Your system will easily fit your current operation while remaining scalable as your needs change. Sales engineers start with the parts you’re running and the cycles you're targeting, then tailor additional recommendations based on your goals, including: 

  • Futureproofing for new automation 
  • Enabling volume and capacity growth 
  • Maximizing part quality and tolerance capabilities
