INVENTORY CONTROL ASSISTANCE FROM CARBIDE TOOL SERVICES

IT’S BEEN OUR EXPERIENCE THAT MANY OF OUR END USERS MONITOR THEIR PERISHBLE CUTTING TOOLS VERY CLOSELY TO MAINTAIN CUSTOMIZED MIN / MAX LEVELS TO FIT THEIR PRODUCTION DEMANDS AND BUDGETS. WHERE THEY COLLECTIVLEY FALL SHORT IS TYPICALLY IN MONITORING DURABLE STEEL, POCKETED, INDEXABLE MILLING CUTTERS, INDEXABLE DRILLS, INDEXABLE TOOL HOLDERS, TAP ADAPTORS, AND ROTATING TOOL HOLDERS. IT’S COMMON THAT MANY OF THESE MAY BE ‘SPECIALS’ WITH VERY LONG LEAD-TIMES FROM THE OEM’S.  CTS ADDS VALUE WITH OUR EXPEDITED REPAIR / REFURBISH CAPABILITES. OUR INDIGIONOUS  REPORTING AT CARBIDE TOOL SERVICES CAN HELP MINIMIZE ADDED STRESS OF MACHINE DOWN TIME BY BETTER PREDICTING WHEN AN INDEXABLE TOOL MAY FAIL – A FEAT THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PREDICT DUE TO MULTIPLE VARIABLES. WE HAVE MANY CUSTOMERS WHO UTILIZE THESE REPORTS TO HELP FORECAST WHEN IT’S TIME TO ADD NEW TOOLS TO THEIR FLOATS - A COST SAVINGS BENEFIT THEY FIND BY ALLOWING CARBIDE TOOL SERVICES TO HELP THEM KEEP THEIR COSTLY INVENTORY MINIMIZED.
