California Tool enters the aerospace industry with diamond-coated tools

The California Tool gains the technical advantage of using a robotic loader that uses ANCA software to automatically load bars of different diameters and cartridges of different sizes without the need for separate settings.

California Tool has been working on custom carbide tools designed for the needs of our customers for many years. Cutteres come in many different shapes and sizes, but you can also choose tools with many different geometries, including rake angles, helix and clearance angles – which is why the California Tool stands out, a strategy that has made them huge Success. Jordan Armitage, Manufacturing Manager of California Tool, said: "We manufacture high-performance custom tools and also provide grinding services. We mainly serve the aerospace industry, as well as custom automotive tools and medical tools."

“We don't want to compete with companies that produce standard knives, try to provide a variety of personalized services, and strive to create high-end, high-performance brands that can grind any customer's dreams. For our customers, quickly fulfill their requirements to It's important. Many companies say they can do it, but the delivery time takes 16 weeks. We can deliver within six days, which is unique in the market competition."

“Our grinding service, although small in scope and energy-consuming, is a cost-effective way for customers to extend tool life. Some customers have very complex tools and high levels of additional technology, which usually cost a lot. Time has been developed. From our point of view, we must grind highly complex cutting tools to meet the complex geometry requirements of our customers. Our internal CAD system can meet a variety of design needs. Design for reverse analysis or custom tooling according to customer's process."

“I personally think that diamond-coated tools are an excellent opportunity in the industry. Diamond-coated tools have long life, repeatability and predictability. This means that customers can know the life of the tools and plan them. The process of machining. Currently, carbon fiber materials used in large quantities in aircraft manufacturing processes require diamond-coated tools to cut."

“The manufacture of diamond-coated tools requires a specific grade of cemented carbide. Our shop stocks enough carbide raw materials to be able to process quickly after receiving the order. We can produce all the tools that meet the specifications and then send them. Diamond coating."

Technology brings market advantage

“It can be said that the California Tool is always keen to invest in the latest and most advanced technology, and we rely on ANCA's innovative capabilities to improve the technology.”

“Our equipment is an important aspect of our ability to demonstrate our strength, because many customers want to conduct field visits and want to see our production workshop. I believe that the cooperation with Zoller and ANCA is a pole to show how we make tools. Good way."

Make the diameter accurate to one in a million

“Many cutting tools are very complex today. The entire team of ZollerGenius and Zoller has helped us improve repeatability and increase market competitiveness, because we are able to provide customers with exactly what they are demanding, with diameters accurate to parts per million. First, the cutting geometry is up to plus or minus."

Automated production software

“ANCA grinders have everything you need for a grinding shop, and more. Their software is feature-rich and many features are not even fully utilized. For example, RoboMate software is compatible with a wide range of diameters and even chuck sizes. People can easily set up the work - our setup is complex and diverse, and ANCA can do a lot of setups at the same time and use the robot is great. I think that the ability to achieve such a function fully demonstrates the strength of ANCA software."

Expanded Metal Mesh

Expanded metal is sometimes considered an alternative to sheet metal or wire mesh. It combines some of the best features of both-providing a material that is stronger than thin wire mesh and has better air flow and drainage than sheet metal.
