Founded in 1915 as the Detroit Stamping Company, De-Sta-Co, found early success providing the burgeoning automotive market with contract stamping as well as die and machining services. To simplify fixturing of auto bodies and other materials on the line, the company developed the original manual toggle clamp that remains a go-to workholding device today.
Through the years, the company has expanded its product line to reflect changes in the manufacture of automobiles, including robot end effectors and other automation tools. Today, it is a global company serving the automotive industries in all major countries.
