skilled toolmakers
How do we do it?
As consumers, we don’t always think about where the products we use are made or how much experience the makers have. In the chain business we have to make our chain strong and durable because it has to withstand your load and wear requirements. It needs tensile and fatigue strength so that your equipment can run efficiently. We simply cannot provide that to you without a deep technical knowledge of chain manufacturing and an understanding of your needs. Take our toolroom as an example. It’s staffed with skilled toolmakers with over 250 years of collective experience. The toolmakers manufacture all our internal tooling requirements for fixturing, blanking, and mechanical spares.
Our toolroom is equipped with the latest in CNC-controlled machining centers, spark and wire eroders, profile and jig grinding, and traditional machine tools such as lathes and millers. In short, maintaining a high-level toolroom in Holyoke helps us react quickly to any customer requirements and not to rely on outsourcing.
