• Decreasing Tool Change-out Time - Because our tools are specifically
    designed for Swiss type screw machines, they are engineered to provide     very quick set-up time without modifications.

      • For example, Our Applitec inserts are designed to fit the tool holder so           you are able to index or change the insert without  removing the tool           holder.

• Increasing Tool Life – By producing tools with the best carbide grades, best     coatings, very tight tolerances and precise cutting angles, the tools last     much longer than generic, lower grade tools.

• Delivering the Right Tools – Our suppliers are dedicated to manufacturing     custom tools to the customer’s precise specifications. We know how costly    production delays due to receiving the wrong tool can be.

• Technical Advise Accuracy – With over 15 years experience, you  can be     confident that FLP will recommend the right tool every time.

• High Repeatability Tolerance – At + 0.01 mm you won’t waste time    resetting your machines.

• Decreasing Downtime – For all the above reasons, by decreasing downtime,    FLP helps lower costs.

• Machining Multiple Parts - For example, our inserts are engineered for    multiple applications - turning, threading, parting  off and grooving – all    using the same tool holder.

• Using Tools with Several Different Machines – Therefore, you  have to buy
    fewer tools to do more work – lowering costs.

• Not Forcing Standard Products on the Customer – If you need custom tools     in small quantities, we will produce those for you. We will not force a     standard product on you that does not work as  well. However, we are     dedicated to recommending lower cost alternatives if they exist.

• Having Machining Flexibility – The ability to exchange parts easily  and have    multiple application tools working together increases accuracy of parts.

• Providing the smallest tool shanks available (10 mm or less) – As  industries    such as the medical and dentistry industries demand increasingly smaller    and smaller parts, tools with very small tool shanks will become more and    more critical to production.

• Providing custom products – Our ability to produce extremely accurate    parts with only sketch drawing gives you the ability to machine parts to your    clients exact specifications.

• If we can’t supply it, no one else can.

• Every tool from FLP Tooling will perform like the last.

• We have the expertise to solve any tooling problems.
