General manufacturing was the shop’s strength. However, in the late 1980s Universe machine found itself focused on product development. The shop designed and engineered a high-quality line of power tongs—a machine used on drilling rigs to screw and unscrew tubing or casing to a specific torque. It was this development that really pushed the shop to branch out into this new area of opportunity. Today Universe Machine’s power tongs and other related products are sold globally.

The shop has spent decades honing its skills and expertise, focusing on the three divisions that have helped it grow: manufacturing, valve services, and products development. In that time the shop has taken on many unique projects, including machining the first heart implant valve for the University of Alberta, designing valves used in the NASA launch facilities, and producing valves for pipelines throughout Canada.

“We need provincial and federal governments to actually support our oil and gas industry in Alberta and across Canada,” said Feigel. “This approach has been proven to create stability, instill confidence, and spur investment, which creates more jobs and economic growth over the long term. Natural resource wealth should be utilized on a parallel platform, creating long-term diversification, energy efficiency, and sustainability without slowing growth or causing economic hardship.”

“Investing and incorporating new technology and focusing on research and development during the pandemic has led to extensive testing and improvements of our existing products,” said Feigel. “We’ve engineered a new line of compact, high-torque power tong equipment, which is currently being introduced to market. We also added a Toshiba TUE-200(S) vertical lathe with live tooling. All of this investment, including retaining skilled, long-term employees, signals to our employees and customers that we can be trusted to continue moving forward, even during difficult times.”

Great Western Tong Services (1987) Ltd. of Virden, Manitoba, pleaded guilty to contravening subsection 137(1)(a) of the regulations (being an employer fail to provide an effective safeguard where a worker may contact a dangerous moving part of a machine, resulting in a serious injury to a worker).  The company was fined $25,000 plus a $10,000 surcharge.

Both companies were fined following a workplace incident on March 19, 2017, near Stoughton. A worker was hospitalized after the worker’s forearm became entangled in the moving gear of a power tong.
