Machine tooling, workholding and metrology: auction prices
We have recorded 15 auction sales with a price of 237 models by 141 makes in this category, and 242 lots are at auction now. Pick a make, or a model below.
This category covers the loose tooling, workholding and measuring equipment that supports machine shops rather than the machines themselves, including inserts, cutters, drills, collets, vices, chucks, dividing heads, saw blades, calipers, gauges, measuring machines and hardness testers. Mitutoyo and Tesa dominate precision measuring instruments such as calipers, micrometers and height gauges, while Fluke covers electrical test meters used for maintenance work. Wila is known for press brake tooling, and names like Soldatech, Krone and Topcon appear across welding, electrical testing and surveying or optical instruments. Buyers in this space are workshops, toolmakers and fabricators equipping or restocking machines rather than buying a single capital asset.

The country of the sale, not where the machine was made. Prices count the recorded sales of identified models, parts and accessories left out, on 85 auction sites, a sale listed twice once, in euros at fixed rates, rounded, before the buyer's premium and VAT; a row needs ten sales. "Found a buyer" counts the 36 sites that publish the lots that failed to sell, from twenty lots up; withdrawn lots are left out. Updated 2026-10-17.

By make, the median of the makes sold most: Harden about EUR 6, Vario Tech about EUR 20, Fluke about EUR 50. These are rounded hammer prices in euros, before the buyer's premium and VAT.
How many machine tooling, workholding and metrology find a buyer at auction?
On the auction sites that publish the lots that failed to sell, 80% of 1.090 lots offered found a buyer. By country: Germany 83%, Netherlands 69%, France 92%. Withdrawn lots are not counted.
How does the year of build change what used machine tooling, workholding and metrology fetch?
The median hammer price by year of build: built 2020 and later, about EUR 150; built 2015 to 2019, about EUR 1.000; built 2005 to 2009, about EUR 500. Age is one part of it; hours, condition and equipment explain the rest, which each sale on the model pages shows.
Hammer prices are what the auction house recorded when the lot closed. How prices are recorded.
