This company was founded in 1960 by Jim Merrick. Their specialty is custom machinery for housing production. They use the "Triad" brand name. They now do business as Triad / Merrick Machine Co.
In 1990 Merrick purchased Ruvo Automation Corp., a Florida company that produced machinery for making pre-hung doors. The Ruvo product line is now manufactured in Alda, Nebraska.
