Vaughan Company was started with one simple question, “What could make this better?” In the service bay of the gas station he owned in Elma, Wash., Jim Vaughan spent hours repairing manure pumps for local dairy farmers. He could see a pattern: the pumps were constantly breaking down due to clogs caused by animal bedding or twine. So in 1960, Jim Vaughan invented the world’s first chopper pump.

The Chopper Pump met a genuine need that had applications far beyond dairy farms. The original patent for the Chopper Pump was applied for in 1960 and granted shortly thereafter. By 1961, the company purchased its own manufacturing facility in Montesano, Wash. In the decades since, Vaughan Company has expanded operations greatly and now has 40 worldwide patents.

Now a third and fourth generation family-owned and operated company, Vaughan Company manufactures pumping and mixing equipment for agriculture, municipal, and a variety of applications, shipping worldwide. In-house 3D modeling allows the company to create precision castings for all components. With Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), Vaughan analyzes flow patterns and velocities within their pumps, looking for ways to maximize performance. Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) automated machining ensures every Vaughan replacement part fits precisely.

With more than half a century of experience, Vaughan Company remains committed to giving customers outstanding service and the most dependable product solutions in the world. WW
