Sell or Buy CNC Machinery in Massachusetts

KD Machinery buys used CNC machining centers, lathes, grinders and electrical discharge machines from Massachusetts manufacturers, along with press brakes, lasers and injection molding machines, and it buys whole shops and plants outright. Whether it is one machine or a full floor, the seller gets one price, and KD Machinery arranges the pickup from its base in Scottsdale, Arizona.

A sale starts with photos of the machine, the control screen and the serial plate. KD Machinery makes an offer, sets a removal date around your last production run, and arranges the rigger and the truck, so the seller does not have to find a carrier. Machines on upper floors or behind narrow doors are planned with the rigger before pickup day, not on it.

Massachusetts plants buying a machine can start with KD Machinery stock: vertical machining centers, CNC lathes and coordinate measuring machines first, then press brakes and laser cutting machines, and injection molding machines for plastics plants.

Massachusetts: common questions

Can KD Machinery get a machine out of an upper floor of an old mill building in Lowell, Fall River or elsewhere in Massachusetts?

Usually, yes. Lowell and Fall River grew as textile mill cities in the nineteenth century, and a machine on an upper floor of one of their old mill buildings needs its route out planned in advance. KD Machinery asks for the freight elevator capacity, door widths, the floor rating if you have it and photos of the route to the street. The rigger then plans an elevator move, a crane pick through a window opening or a partial teardown.

Does a Massachusetts plant pay sales tax on a machine it buys from KD Machinery?

Not if the machine qualifies for the exemption. Massachusetts exempts machinery used directly and exclusively in an industrial plant to manufacture goods for sale, or in research and development by a manufacturing or research and development corporation (Massachusetts General Laws chapter 64H, section 6(s)). The buyer claims the exemption on Form ST-12, the Exempt Use Certificate, given to the seller. Send the signed form with your order. Whether a machine qualifies is a decision for your company and its tax adviser.

Does the crane operator at a Massachusetts pickup need a state hoisting license?

Yes. Under Massachusetts General Laws chapter 146, section 53, a person operating hoisting machinery in Massachusetts must hold a license or temporary permit, and the state classifies cranes as one category of that machinery. If a heavy machine at your plant has to come out by crane, the crane operator needs that license. Your facilities or safety team can ask to see it before the pick.
