LITTELL Since 1918

The legacy in the design and manufacturing of machinery for the metal stamping industry began simply in 1918; a man’s dream of excellence working hard out of the 15 x 17 foot garage behind his home. Frederick J. Littell knew the metal stamping industry needed effective means for feeding metal stock from coils and believed he could provide that means by building excellence and quality into the products that came out of his shop. This is the vision that founded an organization which, for nearly 100 years, has provided the metal stamping industry advanced, precision-built solutions for coil processing and handling. With a strong focus on safety and reliability, Littell’s products gave workers in metals stamping plants more confidence in handling the large, often dangerous coils of material.

Littell continued to grow in size and capabilities, along the way developing many of the technologies and processes commonly used today in the metalworking industry. Among these innovations are the zig-zag feed, coil-to-coil welding; and the scroll sheeting systems for the container and tinplate industries.
