How It Works

Auction

Place equipment in an upcoming sale for a firm date and broad buyer exposure.

Private sale

Negotiated placement through our dealer desk when targeted outreach fits better.

Cash purchase

Sell to Meadoworks outright for a fast close when speed matters most.

Send us your equipment list—machine types, builders, years, controls, and whether machines are under power—plus your timeline. We reply with a free valuation and a recommended path: consign to an upcoming metalworking auction, sell through our dealer desk, or run a complete shop liquidation with rigging and freight coordinated. Once you approve, we handle cataloging, photography, buyer screening, payment, and release.

Recently Sold Metalworking

Featured sold comps for this category will appear here as we catalog recent transactions. In the meantime, ask us for comparable sales when you request a valuation.

Why Meadoworks

Meadoworks brings 50+ years of industrial auction and dealer experience to machine tools. We price CNC, fabrication, grinding, and stamping equipment off real sold comps, and we market to active shops and international buyers who already purchase from our sales—one team whether you are selling a single VMC or clearing an entire plant.

Frequently Asked Questions

What metalworking equipment do you sell?

CNC machining centers and lathes, manual machine tools, press brakes, shears, lasers and plasma tables, welding equipment, surface and cylindrical grinders, stamping presses with coil-handling lines, and the tooling, workholding, and inspection equipment that support them.

Should I auction my machine tools or sell them privately?

Shop closures and multi-machine packages usually recover best at auction, where a firm date concentrates demand. Late-model CNC equipment with strong resale can justify a negotiated dealer sale with more time. We recommend the path after reviewing your list and timeline.

Can you liquidate an entire machine shop or stamping plant?

Yes. We scope full-facility sales to your vacate date, stage photography and lotting, run the timed online auction, and coordinate rigging, checkout, and freight—including export packing for machines heading overseas.

How do you value used metalworking equipment?

We combine recent sold comps from our own sales with the machine specifics buyers care about: builder, year, control generation, travels or tonnage, tooling included, hour meters when available, and under-power status. Realistic pricing and reserve strategy come from that data, not guesswork.

Do international buyers purchase metalworking machinery from you?

Regularly. Buyers in Mexico, Turkey, Pakistan, the Philippines, and other markets source North American machine tools through Meadoworks, and we support them with documentation, export guidance, and freight introductions.
