As of May 2019, Alliance Manufacturing, Inc. celebrates 25 years in business manufacturing industrial parts washers and parts cleaning systems.
Alliance was incorporated in 1994 as the result of a spin-off from a parent company that produced stainless steel food processing equipment. Jeff Brouchoud, Ken Manninen, and a third partner purchased the parts washer division assets of the company. Alliance made its debut at the East-Tech show and then at the IMTS (International Manufacturing and Technology Show) in 1994, displaying the first generation of the Aquamaster line of parts washers. By year-end, Alliance had secured orders for five machines. Later while engineering a custom monorail cleaning system, Alliance pioneered its first split-style, removable canopy. Alliance was awarded a patent for this exclusive Full Access Canopy design (U.S. No. 5,630,435).
