Featured · 01On-Site Wheel Turning (Rail)
DPP turns railroad wheels on-site for the railroad, including Union Pacific, so equipment is trued where it sits instead of shipped out. Few machine shops offer it.
Emporia, Kansas · Est. 1999
Built in America.
Built fast.
Component parts, welded assemblies and hydraulic cylinders for rail, mining and heavy industrial plants. Reshore your supply chain to a Kansas shop that answers the phone and turns parts fast.
Reshoring
Stop waiting on overseas parts.
Long lead times park railcars, haul trucks and boring machines. DPP is part of bringing that work back to North America: we make, repair and rebuild components in the middle of the country, with rapid turnaround on component parts and one point of contact from quote to ship. Rush jobs can ship same day; standard production orders average two weeks.
