about nummech & Mechanized Numerics LLC Grip frame machining Nummech is a division of a company called Mechanized Numerics LLC which is a speciality manufacturing facility and general purpose machine shop located in southeast Michigan within the United States. Nummech was founded by long-time paintball engineer Andrew L DuBuc (aka Ydna), along with several other manufacturing technicians. This group of people took their enjoyment for paintball and combined it with their affinity for manufacturing...thus Nummech was born!

Marker body machining Nummech's products are unique in that most of our product line represents components that have been ignored by the rest of the paintball industry. We make a lot of "fringe" products that other developers prefer to ignore because they aren't "sure fire" sales items. All companies have their own goals, but Nummech is trying to supply preference-based accessories that not everybody may want to use. New ideas and obscure parts form our product line's backbone. If players want it, we make it (or at least investigate the possability of making it). Additionally, oftentimes the solution is similar to something we've already made in the past, so creating a spin-off workpiece helps to keep the costs manageable. Everything is built from desire from a nice core of players out on the field that wanted something new and different. Other developers ignore those players - we do not.

advanced manufacturing and processing Foregrips undergoing inspection Mechanized Numerics was founded by highly-skilled production machinists, and conducts process control through experts in the field. Additionally, we are one of the only developers in the industry that actively employs the use of robotics and flexible manufacturing systems in our daily production activities. Our CNC equipment is purpose-built into automated workcells, designed to keep productivity and accuracy to a maximum. We use automated tools for inspetion which allows the manufacturing cell to auto-adjust itself based on changes that occur during the fabrication process. We human machinists are thus able to spend time with more important tasks such as quality control and assembly.

Everything we make follows a similar structure. Sometimes we make as few as 10 parts if a player wants an obscure item. Other days we're producing batches of 2,000 items at once. The paintball industry is a great place to work and we have a lot of fun helping to enable people's ideas.


OEM-style manufacturing for the paintball industry Marker body blanks Nummech is an established OEM manufacturer for many suppliers operating within the paintball industry. Our in-house machine shop provides the most cost-effective and reliable means for parts production located within the United States. Our internal manufacturing system allows us to control every aspect of the production process at every iteration. Certified raw materials enter the shop; finished products leave directly to the distributors.

We have mastered the production process for the most intricate and precise of marker components. We build both aftermarket and OEM products for a staggering variety of markers, more than any other manufacturer within the industry; this includes firing assembly components, grip frames, marker bodies, 3D printed prototypes, die sets, laser shapecutting, heat treated tooling, assembly fixtures/jigs, demonstrational cutaway sections, and virtually all other components. We've done it all.
