Get to know Engineering Manager Derek Zimmerman. From coordinating with our fixture department on welding jobs to answering client questions and reviewing prints for manufacturability, Derek and the engineering team make life easier for everyone at TMCO. 🤝 Collaboration: “I feel the most important job for someone in a manufacturing engineering role is to connect with the machine operators and figure out ways to make their job easier — they are doing the hard work after all.” 😊 Rewarding Moments: "We’ve done some absolutely amazing things in less than 24 hours for customers who need a replacement part. We couldn’t do this without people who know what is at stake and how important it is to deliver." 🎶 If Your Workday Was A Band: “Tool is renowned for having crazy, shifting time signatures, as well as a unique style of pushing their instruments to the limits. At TMCO, our day-to-day is constantly changing and moving at a rapid pace, yet we stay on the cutting edge, and sometimes we find ways to use machines in unorthodox ways to get a tough job done.”
About us
Total Manufacturing Company Established 1974 in Lincoln, Nebraska, where it still operates today, Total Manufacturing Company specializes in one-stop, concept-to-completion metal manufacturing services. TMCO can finish a product from any stage be it design, fabrication, paint, assembly—or if you wish, the whole ball of wax. Whether a small quantity or a huge manufacturing run, TMCO treats all of its customers with the same reverence. “We hope that we exceed our clients’ expectations every time,” says owner and founder, Roland Temme. In addition Temme says, “It’s a partnership deal because we’re looking to build long-term customer relationships.” That partnership could have a major impact on your design. Just ask Tim Thomssen about a little project that came across his desk several years back. The concept was one farmer’s idea for a useful machine. That machine was a forced air unit used to dry wet cows—essentially a cow dryer (this is Nebraska, folks). Lo and behold through their combined teamwork a design was born and production began on a truly unique item. Not only did TMCO make it possible, they streamlined manufacturing to the fewest steps saving their customer substantial money and time. That product proved so successful, to this day some 10,000 units have been manufactured and shipped from TMCO. That story isn’t unusual in a shop that cultivates the greatest potential from their staff. When you hire the best people, give them the best machines, it’s almost impossible to fail. The proof is in the pudding. Since its inception TMCO has quadrupled in size and will most likely double in the next five years. Couple that with its low turnover and high employee loyalty and it’s no wonder TMCO is flourishing today. Take the tour and learn for yourself why in the age of outsourcing and impersonal service, TMCO holds on tight to the values that have made it a powerhouse in the metal fabrication business.

Meet Derek, our Maintenance Manager. With nearly 400 pieces of equipment and 300,000 square feet to cover, his team is always ready for the next challenge. Proudest Moment: Completing a welding gas plumbing project. Our new bulk gas system is safer and more efficient for our welders, and they no longer have to switch out heavy welding gas bottles. Most Creative Solution: We're currently automating data collection for powder coating wash systems. When finished, there will be no need to record and input data into spreadsheets manually. Workday Theme Song: "Roll With The Changes" by REO Speedwagon – because adaptability is key. Go-to Energizer: Freshly brewed iced tea and popcorn from our maintenance building's machine!
