What types of industrial tools can you repair?
We repair indexable cutting tools (milling cutters, boring bars, drills, end-mills), plastic injection moulds, pressure die-casting dies, compression moulds, rubber moulds, metal injection moulds, and precision components. We handle tools from any brand including Kennametal, Sandvik, Seco, Iscar, and others, with no size or weight limitations.
How much can I save compared to buying new tools?
Customers typically achieve dramatic cost savings—often 60-80% compared to purchasing new replacement tools. The exact savings depend on the tool type and damage extent, but our repairs restore tools to like-new performance at a fraction of replacement cost.
What welding processes do you use for repairs?
We utilize six advanced processes: laser welding, micro-plasma welding, micro-GT welding, TIG welding, micro-cladding, and hybrid laser-micro GT welding. This multi-process capability allows us to select the most economical and precise method for each specific repair.
How long does a typical tool repair take?
Turnaround times vary based on tool complexity and damage extent. We provide estimated delivery timelines after technical evaluation and prioritize meeting production schedules. For urgent repairs, expedited service may be available to minimize your downtime.
Will repaired tools perform as well as new ones?
Yes. Our repairs restore cutting edges to original tolerances with negligible radial/axial runout. Hardness and physical properties match original specifications, and post-repair tool life equals or exceeds the original tool. Every repair includes certificates verifying concentricity and straightness.
Do you repair tools from all manufacturers?
Absolutely. We repair indexable cutting tools and moulds from any brand or manufacturer including Kennametal, Sandvik, Taegutec, Seco, Ceratizit, Mitsubishi, Hitachi, Kyocera, Komet, Tungaloy, Walter, Iscar, and many others using compatible materials and processes.
What damages can be repaired on cutting tools?
We repair broken or damaged cutting edges and pockets, damaged threading, OD wear, height wear, jammed screws, and other common tooling failures. Our material addition techniques can rebuild worn areas instead of requiring tool downsizing or scrapping.
How do I get started with a tool repair?
Contact us with details about your damaged tools. We'll provide a technical questionnaire for evaluation, perform analysis, and deliver a quotation with estimated delivery time. After approval, we complete the repair and provide inspection documentation before returning your tools.
