OUR HISTORY
In 2007, our co-founder and former GM engineer, Tim Owens, built his first CNC machine in his garage—a prototype that sold immediately on eBay. With strong engineering instincts and a growing family to support, Tim set out to build a few more machines while considering his next career move. His wife and co-founder, Melissa Owens, brought expertise in marketing research, quality training, and retail management. Together, their complementary skills formed the foundation of what would become Next Wave Automation.
