Behind The Machines

Behind the Machines is a film series from Ziegler CAT that takes a unique look into personnel, customers, operators, and operations that keep equipment moving and jobs progressing. These stories highlight people and businesses with one common denominator — a passion for bringing their best to work every day.

Join us as we go Behind the Machines, and tell the untold stories of the industries we serve.

Loving what you do, whether at work or at the cabin, and giving your best every day is the secret to a life worth living. Behind the Machines invites you to join Mike and his dad as they enjoy a 50+ year tradition together.
