He was educated at Bradley University in Peoria, Illinois where he received his Bachelors Degree in Mathematics. Dave Weber explains, "My philosophy is to provide a family atmosphere for our employees, sell our customers the best machine for their application, and then provide service and support that exceeds their expectations." Doug Weber joined the organization in 1995 and was educated at the University of Texas at Arlington where he received his BBA in Business Management in 1992 and currently serves as the company's VP and General Manager. According to Doug, "Our people continuously demonstrate their dedication to Hillary Machinery through a willingness to serve the customer. If they can achieve this, they have lived up to our expectations." Doug further explains that "a solid reputation for technical service and support is just as important before the sale as it is after the sale. When you give a customer or potential customer your word that you will service their equipment, you're also giving them your word that you have the resources to keep that promise." Troy Owen joined the company in 1997 and now serves as the company's VP Sales & Marketing. He received his BBA in Business Management from the University of North Texas in 1990. According to Troy, he has a simple goal for his sales people, "go out every day intent on discovering new business relationships and strengthen those you have already forged. Do that sincerely and people will always want to partner with you." Troy added, "I will always remember what our founder, Pat Hillary, told me one day." He said, "We would rather invest in people, not fancy showrooms, lavish offices, or extravagant vacations. The right people make it happen; they make everything happen." Troy adds, "When we hire the right people, compensate and reward them fairly and earn their trust, they will take care of our customers accordingly." Hillary Machinery Inc's employees are largely responsibly for Hillary's success over the past 25 years.

Appropriately nicknamed, "The Beast" by it's many owners throughout Texas. Unless you just need another or just have a need for something with larger travels, the VX750M (PDF) and its big brother, the VX950M are perhaps the only CAT50 all box way vertical machining centers you will ever need in your shop. This machine should have a sign on the head stock that simply states, "challenge me."
