Minnesota-based Wood Machinery Systems named authorized Holz-Her dealer

This HolzHer edgebander is just one of the Weinig USA products distributed by Wood Machinery Systems across North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, and a majority of Iowa.

WEINIG USA has appointed Wood Machinery Systems Inc. (WMS) as an authorized dealer of the HOLZ-HER brand, effective January 2026. Headquartered in Minnetonka, Minnesota, WMS has been a partner of WEINIG USA for three decades, representing solid wood machinery throughout the Upper Midwest. 

Now, WMS is an authorized HOLZ-HER dealer, expanding its support for panel processing, CNC automation, and intelligent production technology.

As part of this expanded partnership, WMS will now also represent the HOLZ-HER brand of panel processing machinery across North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, and a majority of Iowa. This strategic expansion strengthens WEINIG USA’s regional dealer network and reinforces its commitment to providing customers with best-in-class panel processing solutions, CNC automation, and intelligent production technology backed by strong local support.

This change is rooted in WEINIG USA’s dedication to the continued success of its customers, ensuring operational continuity, regional accessibility, and long-term manufacturing growth. The company is confident that WMS will support HOLZ-HER equipment customers with the same level of technical excellence, integrity, and customer-first focus demonstrated through years of WEINIG collaboration. 

“We are very excited to leverage the energy, resources, and expertise that WMS brings across both the WEINIG and HOLZ-HER brands. With a strong track record and deep industry experience, WMS will further strengthen WEINIG’s position as a leading provider of solid wood and panel processing equipment throughout the Midwest," said Christian Smedberg, sales & marketing director, WEINIG USA.

WMS is a family-owned and operated organization recognized for its deep industry expertise, hands-on machine training, and comprehensive service and support capabilities. Jessica Freeseman, director of sales for Wood Machinery Systems, added, "The HOLZ-HER lineup allows WMS to provide woodworking shops with solutions that drive efficiency, profitability, and long-term success. We are excited to be the chosen distributor bringing the HOLZ-HER and WEINIG brands together under one roof in the Midwest. Building on our 25+ year relationship with WEINIG, we look forward to a lasting partnership with the outstanding HOLZ-HER team."
