Engineered cutting-tool procurement
From component requirements to a tooling schedule, technical proposal and delivery plan: Ariya Tajhiz Maahtab (ATM)’s procurement path for production and maintenance machining.
Prepare a technical RFQChoose your procurement route
An integrated solution connects application definition with procurement planning. Engineering review, trials, manufacturer coordination and execution support are scoped for each project before ordering.
Review a machining challenge
Describe the component and process challenge to define tooling options and the technical review.
Start an inquiryPlan a project tooling package
For a new component or line, define operations, machines, quantities and delivery stages.
Start an inquiryTooling by operation
Turning & roll turning
Inserts, holders and boring bars; review grade, geometry and edge preparation for hardened parts and general turning.
Face milling
Face mills, inserts and arbors selected against surface width, spindle power and interface, workpiece material and finish requirements.
Shoulder, pocket & profile milling
Shoulder mills, end mills and profiling tools, considering access, overhang, cutting depth and assembly stability.
Drilling & hole finishing
Solid-carbide or indexable drills, reamers and boring tools, with diameter, depth, length-to-diameter ratio, tolerance and coolant delivery specified.
Tapping & thread milling
Cutting or forming taps and thread mills matched to the thread specification, material, blind or through holes and machine conditions.
Toolholding & complete assemblies
Match holders, collets, arbors and consumables to the tool and machine, identifying companion items to avoid incomplete orders.
Tool materials, selected by application
Tungsten carbide
A distinct carbide-tool family; review grade, coating and geometry for application-specific turning, milling, drilling and threading.
CBN / PcBN
Cubic-boron-nitride tooling for hardened-part and selected roll applications, assessed against material, hardness and cutting conditions.
Cutting ceramics
Assess ceramic grades for suitable applications, from hard parts and cast iron to selected superalloy machining, with particular attention to process constraints.
PCD
Polycrystalline-diamond tooling for suitable non-ferrous and abrasive materials, including selected aluminium components; its selection differs from CBN and carbide.
A six-stage procurement plan
01 · Define the requirement
Input: component drawing or specifications, material and hardness, operation and production target. Output: an agreed technical brief and acceptance criteria.
02 · Review the application
Input: machine, tool interface, workholding, coolant and current tooling. Output: suitable tool families, process constraints and options for review.
03 · Compare & propose
Input: preferred brand and code, or an alternative-sourcing request. Output: a proposed tool list, grades, geometries, companion items and option differences; specification changes require customer acceptance.
04 · Plan procurement
Input: quantity, recurring consumption, required date and documentation. Output: commercial terms, confirmed lead time, an order schedule and agreed inspection and traceability requirements.
05 · Confirm & deliver
Confirm the final specifications and items before ordering. Review agreed documents and checks at delivery; coordinate sample or production trials when included in the project scope.
06 · Review & replenish
Use customer data to review tool life, finish and tooling cost per component. Findings guide selection updates and replenishment; performance improvements must be demonstrated by data.
Industries & component applications
Automotive & component manufacturing
Review tooling for brake discs, transmission components, cylinder heads and aluminium parts against material, hardness and production volume.
Steel manufacturing & roll turning
Assess CBN, ceramic or carbide tooling against roll material and hardness, continuous or interrupted cuts and machine stability, from roughing to finishing.
Oil, gas & petrochemicals
Tooling for pump components, valve bodies, shafts and corrosion-resistant parts, alongside maintenance requirements.
Power generation & gas turbines
Application review for turbine discs, blades, casings and related parts, considering superalloys, heat-resistant steels, tolerances and process stability.
Customer deliverables
Tool & assembly schedule
Codes, grades, geometries, quantities and companion items, with the primary and proposed alternative options distinguished.
Technical & commercial proposal
Selection rationale, open approval items, pricing and ordering terms within a clear scope.
Delivery & quality plan
Lead times, phased delivery when agreed, manufacturer documentation and project-specific acceptance checks.
Evaluation measures
Record a baseline and trial results when agreed, such as tool life, cycle time and component quality, to inform repeat supply.
What do we need to start?
Prepare the drawing or component description, material and hardness, operation, machine and tool interface, tolerance and finish, current tool code, quantity and consumption, required date and improvement target. If some information is unavailable, enter what you know in the inquiry form so follow-up questions can be defined.
