Allied Machine & Engineering innovation facilitates special tooling specification for drilling and holemaking. The company has developed and streamlined the process for designing and quoting special tooling, dramatically reducing time-to-market for a multitude of holemaking products.
To address the challenge of price and delivery, Allied offers Insta-Quote, a user-friendly online tool that allows customers to design, quote and order tooling for their specific applications in a matter of minutes. Choose the hole pattern, holder style, straight or helical flute, inch or metric, blade or insert type, and all other design parameters from the convenience of your desktop. Additionally, customers get the benefit of real-time quoting and approval drawings, so there are no surprises or subsequent delays.
In all, the process of design, quote, order, manufacture, and delivery can take place in as little as 10 days, far quicker than the industry standard of 4-5 weeks. It’s particularly useful for Allied channel partners and distributors as well as customers in overseas markets who conduct business in different time zones therefore eliminating having to wait for the following business day to begin.
