Upgrade your equipment. Boost your production. Maximize your tax savings.
As the year comes to a close, there is still time for manufacturers and machine shops to take advantage of one of the most powerful tax incentives available, Section 179 of the U.S. Tax Code. This benefit allows you to deduct the full purchase price of qualifying new CNC machine tool equipment that is purchased and placed in service before December 31, 2025.
Instead of depreciating the cost over several years, Section 179 allows you to write off the entire amount in the same tax year, creating a significant cash flow advantage.
If you have been considering upgrading or expanding your CNC machine tool equipment, now is the ideal time before the new year approaches.
What Section 179 Means for Machine Shops
Section 179 was created to help manufacturers reinvest in their operations. In simple terms, if you purchase a new machining center, lathe, or mill this year and have it installed and running by December 31, 2025, you can deduct the full purchase amount in 2025 (some limitations and exclusions may apply).
Eligible equipment includes:
CNC turning centers
Vertical and horizontal machining centers
Milling and drilling machines
Lathes, grinders, and automation systems
And more!
Why This Is the Time to Upgrade
The end of the year often brings tight lead times and heavy demand, but it also brings opportunity. Many manufacturers wait too long to act and miss the Section 179 deadline because their new machines are not yet placed in service.
To qualify, the equipment must be delivered, installed, and operational before midnight on December 31. Ordering alone is not enough.
That is why Accurate Machine Tool Services and our partners at FFG Americas are helping shops act quickly with our in-stock inventory that is ready to ship and ready to quickly enter production.
New CNC Machines Ready to Ship
Accurate Machine Tool Services currently has several Leadwell, Feeler, and FFG DMC models in stock through our partnership with FFG Americas. These machines are proven performers in shops across the country, combining precision, durability, and value. Whether you need a vertical machining center for production work, a reliable turning center, or a multi-axis horizontal for high capacity jobs, we have equipment ready to install and running before year’s end. These machines may not be subject to current tariff fees on imported equipment, providing an even greater savings opportunity.
Our team can coordinate delivery, installation, and startup to ensure your machine is running before the year ends, helping you qualify for the Section 179 deduction and start producing immediately.
The Advantage of Acting Now
Waiting until the final weeks of the year can mean missing out on both tax benefits and valuable production time. Machines that are already in stock can be installed and operational quickly, giving you a strong start heading into 2026.
Whether you are replacing aging equipment, expanding capacity, or modernizing your shop, Section 179 can significantly reduce the cost of investment and free up cash flow for future growth.
