More About Morris South

Machine Tool Systems (MTS) and the R.O Deaderick Company (RODCO) enjoyed stellar reputations as highly regarded machine tool distributors before officially merging to form Morris South in July 2009. In years prior, these two strong distributorships worked closely together as separate divisions of Morris Group, Inc.   As Morris South, we enjoy sharing the large pool of engineering and service resources in our combined regions and through the network of Morris Group, Inc. companies. 

We offer new equipment, custom engineered solutions, replacement parts, service, preventative maintenance and more. Our services range from customer consultation, financing, installation, training, and service to disposition of your retired machines through our Capital Asset Lifecycle Management® program.

Two-thirds of our staff are dedicated to providing engineering, parts and service support; no other machine tool distributor in the Southeast is better structured to get your machine tools in place, producing, and performing optimally.  We'll take you from print to part in as little time as possible.  We'll work with you to design, optimize and implement custom engineered solutions to help your company do more with less. Our 24/7 program ensures that someone is always on call if you need parts or service.

Morris South represents many of metalworking's premium brands, including Okuma, Tsugami, Kira, Takamaz and Loxin.  Our customers in the Southeastern U.S. are serviced by two regional offices.
