This year, Boston Centerless celebrates its 60th anniversary. The company was founded in 1958 by Len Tamasi with a single centerless grinder, initially providing through-feed centerless grinding services. Today, the AccuRod Division supplies precision ground bar materials, the GrindAll Division provides through-feed and in-feed centerless grinding services on customer supplied components and material, and the PinGage Division manufactures ultra-precise gages.

The company’s corporate location is a 45,000-square-foot facility in Woburn, Massachusetts, and it also has three distribution centers located in Woburn; Cleveland, Ohio; and Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Current company CEO Steven Tamasi recently wrote “A Peek into Six Decades of Striving for Excellence,” an article covering the history of the company leading up to this year’s celebration:
