About Us
Marathon Machine Tools is a full line, full service machine tool distributor serving its customers since 1989. At its inception Marathon imported and distributed the products of the well known Austrian company Voest-Alpine. Through the years it continuously broadened its range of machine tool products and developed into a full service distributorship.
Marathon`s sales and services track record is proven by its long standing relationship with its key principles including our representation of the Excel line of CNC turning centers since 1992 and the Baruffaldi product line since 1995 Marathon performed in its sales territory more than 400 CNC installations, including turnkey projects, bar feed and 4th-axis installations. In 1998 the company decided to build its own building in Humble, North East Houston.
Finally in 1999, the company moved into its new, 6,500 sq ft facility featuring a 3,000 sq ft showroom, a 2,000 sq ft. spare parts and service area with overhead crane and modern offices.
Marathon also provides regular CNC operation and programming training either in its own facility (classroom and hands-on practice) or at its customers place for multiple students (e.g. National Oilwell, Piper Precision etc.) The training courses are conducted by Steve Matis (M. Sc. Engineering) having 28 years of experience in machine tool building and CNC programming. He is also an instructor at the Houston Community College. Steve has been with Marathon Machine Tools since the inception of the company.
