About Our Company
TRAX Automation Inc was founded in 2018, spun off from 15+ years of partnership in other manufacturing businesses in the Twin Cities metro.
Our owner, Chad Weigel, has been machining since 1994. His vision has always been to utilize automation and efficiency as much as possible to create a company that could withstand even the toughest challenges. What started as a small idea to run a couple of Swiss machines in the garage quickly ramped up to leasing a 3,000 sq ft space, purchasing more equipment, and looking for employees. In 2020 we expanded and purchased our 15,000 sq foot facility in Big Lake, MN. We are proud to have an experienced team that continues to provide machining excellence to the customers we serve.
We believe in manufacturing as a professional career for everyone, and have a goal to work towards an apprenticeship type of program with the Big Lake Community Schools. We welcome youth that are interested in manufacturing to contact us directly at this time. We are also proud members of Women in Manufacturing, Minnesota.
