Willow Tool & Machining, LTD recently celebrated its 36th year in business. The company now offers customers design services and expanded manufacturing capabilities for production tooling.
From the beginning, part of our philosophy has been to provide standard-special quality working tools, competitively priced. A large part of our operation has been to constantly expand our ability to conceptualize new and innovative applications: sometimes without prints, just from a prototype; sometimes from a customers sketch, but most often, from simply an idea, a conversation or an unsolicited suggestion for an improvement.
By analyzing our customers availability of equipment, willow tool can quickly determine the best way to machine competitively a quality finished product. We can provide processing services to determine speeds, feeds and chiploads.
We utilize mastercam for design and programming. Willow Tool is a controlled environment facility and our maximum tolerance capability is +/-.00005.
Our turning department is outfitted with tool room CNC lathes that have the ability to make special tooling.
Our production turning department has the ability to run short run production from 1,000 to 100,000 parts.
Our CNC milling department is equipped with 2,3 and 4 axis CNC mills ranging in size from 20 x 16 to 42 x 20 and can produce tools in a repetitive manner.
We have a complete tool room grinding department equipped with od, id, surface and cutter grinders which are capable of holding close tolerances of +/-.0001.
Our form grinding department is equipped with rebuilt sheffield profile grinders to produce a variety of cutting tools in an economical manner.
We are efficient in short run production by using our ability to make special tooling to cut out operations and arrive at faster cycle times.
