About Us

Forty Years
One Standard

Rebuilding America's manual and conventional machinery since 1985. Same business, same family-owned standard, new chapter!

A Message From Our President

New Leadership, Same Standard

We're proud to serve our industrial community and honored to carry forward the legacy of Dan's Machine Tool. When Jennifer approached me about the opportunity, my answer was an enthusiastic yes.

Combining Dan's with Wheeler Machinery Sales makes us a true one-stop shop, offering both quality equipment and expert service. For my family, this move deepens our commitment to an industry we've been part of for generations, while also reviving a vital service component that's been quietly fading.

My goal is to continue delivering excellent support to both new and longtime customers, and to inspire the next generation to explore careers in the trades. I've always hoped to leave a mark on this industry. With this step, I believe we're just getting started.

Looking forward to working with you in the years ahead.

Our Heritage

Built On A Handshake And A Deadline

Dan Vitullo opened the business with a set of micrometers, a standard of work he refused to compromise, and a promise that anything he took in would leave better than it came.

Alongside Jennifer Kushner, Dan grew a one-man workshop into one of America's most recognizable machinery rebuilding and repair businesses. From small businesses chasing tolerances to aerospace firms that couldn't afford downtime, customers came back for the same reason: Dan did what he said he'd do, and he did it on schedule.

That handshake-and-deadline reputation is the foundation every repair, rebuild, and maintenance visit still stands on today.

Carrying Dan's Legacy Forward

After Dan's passing in 2010, Jennifer Kushner continued running the business with long-time office manager Becky Fox, holding the standard Dan set for more than a decade.

In November of 2024, Jennifer was ready to step back and spend more time with family. She invited Dan and Gina Wheeler of Wheeler Machinery Sales, Inc. to consider taking the reins — and the answer was an immediate, enthusiastic yes.

It's a natural fit: two family-owned businesses built on the same values of quality, honesty, and on-time delivery. The name over the door stays the same. The work stays the same. And the people Dan and Jennifer built this business around, their customers, get to keep counting on it.

Our Code

The Standard Hasn't Changed

Four decades on, the way we work is the same as the day Dan opened the business: tight tolerances, straight answers, and a delivery date you can plan a production schedule around.

  • Tolerance Is Non-Negotiable

    Machines leave our floor measured, aligned, and in spec not "close enough."

  • Delivered On The Day We Said

    Your production schedule is the deadline. We plan the work around it.

  • Straight Answers, Every Quote

    Honest scope, honest price, a clear picture of what we found, no mid-repair surprises.

  • Built On Returning Customers

    Most of our work comes from businesses we've served for decades. That's the scorecard that matters.

Who We Serve

Machine Tool Businesses

We service manual and conventional machinery for fabricators, tool & die operations, and aerospace manufacturers across America. If it has ways, a spindle, and a production deadline, we've probably brought one back to spec.
