FORMAT Tools. Why Having a Broad Breadth of Choice is Important to FORMAT Tools and Their Customers Part 2.

Tuesday, October 18, 2016

With so much choice in the cutting tool world, here at FORMAT Tools we understand that it can be hard for customers to work out which cutting tool manufacturer to choose.

In our experience, six key factors that affect such an important decision include:
1.    The quality of the cutting tool itself
2.    How cutting tool distributors are chosen and monitored by the cutting tool manufacturer
3.    Breadth of cutting tool choice
4.    Speed of delivery of the cutting tool
5.    How the cutting tool manufacturer runs their business and is structured
6.    Cutting tools pricing policy

In this blog story we will focus on number three, the ‘Breadth of cutting tool choice.’

Why the FORMAT Tools Breadth of Choice is So Important to Manufacturers

In manufacturing, time is money.
Downtime due to the wrongly specified cutting tool reduces profitability because a workforce stops, but paying them to be present, does not. The broader the range the more likely it is that the cutting tool supplier can provide the best tool, quickly. Almost 15,000 cutting tools means that there is a direct and positive impact in manufacturer uptime because matching tool-to-job is easier to get right, first time.

Missed deadlines due to an incorrect cutting tool or delayed provision of a cutting tool damages the toll manufacturer’s reputation, the distributors reputation and the manufacturer’s reputation with their customer. The knock-on effect can be quite severe.

These are just a few reasons why the huge choice available at FORMAT Tools creates great win:win opportunity.
