Quickgrind has been at the
forefront of tool design and
manufacture for almost 50
years, and has an international reputation
for solid carbide
and high speed steel-cutting
tools for the extrusion die,
fabrication, die and mould,
aerospace, automotive, medical and general engineering
industries.
Its objective is to help increase
your productivity by optimising
metal removal rates and tool life
by using the correct technology
and specifying the right tool for
the job.
Often this involves producing
tools which are specific for your
needs - and at costs which are
little different to paying for standard
tooling.
This approach - now known as
'total solution engineering' - now
embraces a range of compatible
services including re-manufacture
and inventory control.
Other specialisations are carbide
tooling to almost zero tolerance;
tooling innovation to reduce production time; and tooling on
demand where it secures pointof-use delivery solutions for high
value, high volume tooling, consumables and PPE equipment.
