MACHINES AND TOOLS FOR SHEET METAL WORKERS

In 1879 the Niagara Stamping & Tool Co., also known asthe Niagara Stamping & Tool Works, were established by Adam Heinz, MichaelJ. Stark and George J. Munschauer. Heinz and Munschauer were already partnersin a manufacturing firm that made ice boxes and bird cages among theirproducts. In their early days, the Niagara Stamping & Tool Co. made toolsand machinery for cans and canning, plus they did stamping and punching forother manufacturers.

By 1884 the company had 60 employees, and was increasinglyspecializing in sheet metal machinery. Stark left the business in 1888, and thelocal soap-making business of Lautz Brothers—Munschauer\'s wife, Margaret, was amember of the Lautz family—became a partner. The business continued to thriveand by 1889 they had nearly 150 employees. In 1890, George Munschauer diedunexpectedly. We do not know how the ownership changed at that time. In about1897 the name changed to Niagara Machine & Tool Co., and by 1900 the nameNiagara Machine & Tool Works was being used. By 1909 George A. Lautz waspresident, Adam E. Heinz was vice president, and George R. Munschauer wassecretary and treasurer.
