Moline Machinery, LLC is a Duluth, Minnesota-based machinery manufacturer in the food processing sector, employing 51-200 people and located at 114 South Central Avenue, Duluth, MN 55807. The company provides custom-engineered equipment for high-volume dough forming, sheeting, proofing, and frying, serving industrial and commercial operations and capable of processing more than 25,000 pounds of dough per hour. The business traces its origins to 1945, founded by Harry Moline after receiving the patent for a hexagonal rotary donut cutter; it was acquired by the Pillsbury Company in 1972 and later became privately held again in 1991 as Moline Machinery LLC. In 1995 Moline acquired the industrial product line from Donut Corporation of America, expanding its market presence in industrial donut equipment and establishing itself as a turnkey supplier of high-volume yeast-raised donut systems in North America. In 2012, Moline opened its Customer Innovation Center in Duluth to demonstrate its sheeting and laminating systems, belt proofer, and donut equipment, and ongoing product developments include an automatic system introduced in 2025 to remove flour and debris from the bottom of a proofer during long operation.
