Universal horizontal drilling and tapping machine, 1947

Kaukauna Machine Corp. was organized in early 1939 by Ralph Kraut and associates, who had purchased the assets of Moloch Foundry and Machine Co. It appears that the new firm manufactured a completely different product line of machine tools including a radial drilling and tapping machine, boring head, and indexing table. In 1955 Giddings & Lewis Machine Tool Co. bought Kaukauna Machine Corp.
