Successful US diamond cutting tools now available in UK
S D Tooling UK, the Chelmsford, Essex-based technical tooling solutions specialist, has been appointed exclusive UK agent for the range of cost-effective and highly productive diamond cutting tools manufactured in the USA by SP3 Cutting Tools, Inc.
The agreement will deliver solutions to UK companies, particularly those involved with high-volume and difficult-to-machine abrasive materials where extended tool wear is critical to both bottom line costs and component quality. Indeed, in terms of carbon fibre machining, diamond tooling is often the only practical solution.
In the USA, SP3 tooling is consistently generating substantial benefits in the machining of silicon aluminium die castings (cylinder heads and engine blocks) for first and second tier automotive suppliers to companies such as GM, Ford, Chrysler, Honda and Toyota.
