Cutting, Sawing & Saw Blades
Metal cutting solutions from Canada
AT a time when economies throughout the
world have experienced record lows, a
company from Ontario, Canada is making
it easier for manufacturing operations to
cut costs and increase productivity. New-
Form Tools prides itself on its high level
of innovation, delivering ground-breaking
ways to provide cost-effective metal cutting
solutions to the tube and pipe, roll form, and
coil processing industries.
New-Form Tools offers speciality blades
and cutting systems for high tensile and high
strength materials including stainless steels
and exotic metal tubing. Its titanium coated
shear blades, jaws, and roll-form tooling are
impact and wear resistant.
Customers that have struggled with
sawing and shearing can now depend
on consistent saw quality cuts in varying
size and wall thickness. No longer is there
unpredictability in blade life. New-Form
Tools can assure customers of long life and
high-quality cuts far beyond that of regular
sawing and shearing of high strength steel
tubing.
New-Form also produces highly durable
slitter knives, cryogenically treated for
increased durability and longer production
life. Its in-house cryogenic treatment service
provides a critical hardening stage adding
compressive strength and durability to
the products, resulting in greater fatigue
resistance. Coil processors can realise
significant cost savings with chip resistant
knives, providing increased production and
reduced downtime.
New-Form Tools purchases only certified
steel from reputable mill sources. All stages
of manufacturing are completed in-house,
allowing the company to monitor quality
throughout the process.
Blades, jaws and slitter knives are
produced efficiently on robotic CNC
equipment with limited human intervention.
New-Form Tools eliminates the need to
import low quality, uncertified products with
long lead-times from low-cost unreliable
suppliers.
With the ability to work from concept to
finished product, a dedicated technical team
and a commitment to quality and customer
satisfaction, New-Form Tools is a natural
partner for automated integration solutions.
New-Form Tools has also developed
patented quick change systems that
dramatically reduce downtime in tube
shearing. The New-Form quick change tool
systems can now be adapted to fit most
existing tube-shear cutting machines and
will transform your production lines into
higher profit work centres. Tool package
changes that would total up to 60 minutes
have been reduced to as little as 60 seconds.
In changing blades and jaws, customers can
realise return on investment in as little as
one week, said the company.
Taking away the guess work when
fine-tuning spring back from the bending
process, New-Form Tools has developed
patent pending tweaking stations for CNC
tube bending centres. These are able to
accurately straighten or bend steel tubing to
consistent tolerances with a cost-effective
automated work centre. This allows
customers to compete internationally with
exacting consistent tolerances on every
piece-part, produced in a labour free
production environment.
