IMCO now available on MachiningCloud

Cleveland, Ohio – IMCO Carbide Tool Inc., manufacturer of precision cutting tools, is now available on MachiningCloud, product data provider for cutting tools, CNC machines, and workholding.

The MachiningCloud represents a new channel through which IMCO will provide their customers with the digital product data needed to run today's data-hungry shop software. This partnership will simplify the process of finding the right cutting tools for IMCO Carbide Tool customers for their manufacturing jobs, as they will have direct access to current and complete tooling data without the hassle of searching through printed catalogs and multiple websites to find ideal tooling.

IMCO customers will be able to increase productivity and achieve greater accuracy by easily downloading descriptive, usage and geometric information directly into their shop floor software, such as CAM, simulation, and tool management systems.

"MachiningCloud's ability to feed IMCO product data directly into their customers' shop software offers a tremendous benefit over paper catalogs and websites that currently offer this type of data which is then manually typed into the end user's software," says Pierre-Francois Tavard, senior product manager for MachiningCloud. "By utilizing cloud technology and industry standards, including ISO13399, STEP, GTC, and MTConnect, the MachiningCloud is capable of serving up-to-date product data to virtually any shop floor software or system."
