Faustson Tool, Arvada, CO

Heidi Hostetter

Briefly describe your company's products and services.

High Precision Machining for the Aerospace, Energy, Defense and Medical industries just to name a few.

What makes your company unique?

Our cutting edge technologies and advancements in our industry. We specifically buy the latest, greatest technologies out there to ensure we are providing our customers solutions for any mechanical and/or electromechanical needs they might have.

How does your company innovate?

We are constantly looking at the industry needs not just now, but forecasting and marketing future demand to determine where we believe the technology will go and procure the equipment and staff to support this years before it occurs. For example, Faustson was the first manufacturer to demonstrate in late 70s/early 80s the benefits of EDM technologies and in the 90s, Faustson was the first to demonstrate the benefit(s) of five axis milling and how this could change the face of design and manufacturing from that timeframe forward.

What is a recent highlight of your company's success?

A nationally and internationally acclaimed success was Faustson's work on Kepler. This was the most expensive NASA Scope ever launched into space and Faustson had the right equipment, personnel and innovative manufacturing ideas to create the most critical component on that telescope-- the mirror substrate that held all of the optics for this particular system.

What separates your company from the competition?

Our ability to market, trend, and provide the solutions our customers need from equipment to labor to effective daily communications skills. Our marketing tag is “ we accept your challenge…….” It could not be more fitting and appropriate.

Where do you see your company in five years?

A world class leader in High Precision Machining not just nationally, but internationally.
