Start-up toolkits available from Sandvik Coromant

The firm says that some 70% of new machines are sold un-tooled by machine tool suppliers, agents or distributors and this creates a delay between taking delivery of a new machine and having it start production. In total, 66 different start-up toolkits are available for the most common turning centres, machining centres and sliding-head machines. There are toolkits for cast iron and steel production, aluminium production and die and mould production, and all sets come in a high-quality plastic carry case. Sandvik Coromant has even created a dedicated webpage at www.sandvik.coromant.com/startuptoolkits where site visitors can be guided through how to choose the right kit.
