Motionmaster Purchases Interest in Vector Machinery
Scott Bollar, President and Owner of Motionmaster Inc., has purchased a significant equity interest in Vector Machinery, Inc., a manufacturer of thermoforming machinery for the heavy-gauge plastics industry.

Motionmaster is a manufacturer of CNC routers for the wood, plastic, and composite industries. They also have a strong customer base in the thermoforming industry, where their 5-axis routers are used to automate trimming operations required on formed parts.

Founded by Richard Brashier in 1998, Vector Machinery's products include single-station shuttle, double-ended shuttle, and rotary equipment. They have specialized in precision high-speed pressure-forming machines, including twin-sheet formers.

"Brashier was a Motionmaster customer before he created Vector. We have watched his progress closely over the last several years. Based on feedback we've received from his customers, he builds a machine of the highest quality that is priced well below the competition. Vector has developed an outstanding reputation for building machinery that is suited precisely to a customer's specific needs. We wanted to be part of his continued growth. Motionmaster has been serving the same industry for over 20 years. We can get the message out that there is a new player in the industry," says Bollar.

Under their agreement, Bollar will direct sales and marketing for Vector. Brashier will remain President, directing product development, engineering and operations.

"Vector will be able to draw on Motionmaster's technical resources and manufacturing experience to streamline production. Most significantly, Motionmaster will provide the financial backing and stability needed for the rapid growth we anticipate," added Bollar.

Under development is a new value line of single-station forming machines. "Initially, we focused and specialized on high-end rotary machines. With the introduction of low-cost thermoforming machines, we will expand our product line to include a complete family of machines that are precisely engineered to be sturdy, reliable, and affordable," said Brashier. "Our new relationship with Scott and Motionmaster will help us enlarge our customer base. It's a perfect fit."
