KA-WOOD GEAR & MACHINE CO.
is a leader of gear manufacturing in the machine tool industry.
The Company was established
in 1920 by Joseph J. Kloka and Alfred Underwood, with the last syllable of
their last names comprising the Ka-Wood company name. The Company was founded in
Detroit, MI and was originally located in a two car garage.
In 1941 the Company
moved

In 1981, Joseph J. Kloka, III took ownership
of the Company and moved the business to Madison Heights, MI into a 9,000 sq.

In
1994, due to continued increased business, the
Company again
moved
into a larger manufacturing plant; we currently
occupy
a 20,000 sq. ft. state of the art
manufacturing
facility in Madison Heights, MI.
With the experience we have gained since
1920, we are confident that we can handle most of your gear requirements.
