Dormer Product Selector now runs online
1 min read
Dormer has re-launched its Product Selector programme as a web-based application, which provides guidance on the most effective machining solutions from the company's 'live' database of more than 12,500 products.
This latest version has been completely re-engineered from top to bottom to maximise ease of use, speed and compatibility with modern PCs and latest versions of Windows.
The software provides users with personalised advice on the best tool for a range of machining areas including drilling, milling, threading and reaming.
Ricky Payling, project leader, says: "This latest version of our Product Selector represents a significant step forward.
"For the first time, it will be available to use online – at www.dormertools.com - which will make it more accessible. The design and layout has been refreshed, with minimal data input required. Most information can be selected either from drop-down lists or check-boxes. This means the process is both quick and simple – even for first time users.
"Another advantage of the 'live', online version format is that it is automatically updated whenever we launch a new product, meaning the information on there is always correct and up to date."
Additional technical data, including cost and tool life comparison graphs for up to eight different products, can be accessed at the touch of a button.
Explains Mr Payling: "Dormer was one of the first to launch this kind of tool selection software back in 1991, although it was available only on diskette at the time.
"We have an unrivalled reputation in the industry for producing 'customer help' material, such as information wall charts and technical handbooks, and our Product Selector is very well known and respected in the industry. We believe this latest version will enhance our global reputation for providing effective customer support."
