The Story of KSI Swiss

KMT/Nexturn's First Importer
In our quest to find better, more affordable options for use in our own shop, we found a small machine tool builder in South Korea and became the first importer of the Nexturn line in the USA. We imported them first for our own use, then continued to sell over 100 Nexturn CNC Swiss machines all across the country.

We Decided to Build Our Own
After the instant success of the Nexturn line, and after hitting some roadblocks of engineering with the build teams, we decided to build our own line of machines in the USA. We wanted to control the engineering, quality, and be able to produce the most feature-packed machines on the market, for their price range.
