Formerly known as Hershey’s Metal Meister, Forge Machines is a U.S.-based company that brings decades of experience in roll forming and machinery manufacturing. That experience gives Forge a clear understanding of what metal shops value most: reliable equipment, ease of operation, and dependable support, especially when downtime threatens productivity.

At the heart of Forge Machines is a strong company culture rooted in Biblical principles. This culture drives our commitment to integrity, continuous improvement, and serving others with excellence. Forge’s deeper purpose is to impact lives for the Kingdom of God—beginning with our own team through a faith-centered environment that fosters growth and purpose, and extending that impact to our customers, suppliers, and the broader community.

This purpose fuels our vision: to become the industry leader in metal trim solutions by delivering innovative, high-performance equipment and unmatched service that empowers shops to thrive.

We try listen to our customers and understand their needs. We have a robust product development department who is constantly in development of new features, software updates, etc. We do have plans to keep bringing more machines to market for the trim industry. Stay tuned!
