Some manufacturing hurdles need a bespoke, tailored approach. This is where Exactaform come in.
We take your current processes and optimise them - cutting down costs and increasing productivity. Often, this requires a specialised tool that’s made-to-measure combined with one-to-one training.
The team here have a proven track record of helping manufacturers like you with customised tooling solutions.
Our engineers will meet with you to discuss your manufacturing challenges and identify the root of your issues. You’ll also learn if we can support your wider technical processes, and if we’ll need additional technical partners for support.
Next, we’ll work with you to define your current objectives, procedures, processes and machinery, so we can use our specialist knowledge to design a solution that works.
You’ll be invited to tour our facility and manufacturing processes, helping you understand how our processes are tailored to help customers. See first-hand how we’re able to create solutions that reduce tool changes, wastage and lost efficiency.
After we’ve gathered the information we need and you’re happy with our approach, we’ll get to work. Leveraging our experience and technologies, we’ll develop and propose a custom solution with mock-up designs.
Before delivery, we’ll test most cases to check they match your requirements and our standards. We’ll also ensure you have the enhanced engineering support you need, such as component machining strategies, cut-time analysis and full engineering solutions.
Overcome a problem, or maximise efficiency. Our bespoke tooling customers usually fit into two categories; those working with a difficult material, and those looking to optimise productivity and output:
Working with a new material that challenges your conventional machining methods can be frustrating. When standard tooling doesn't give you the results you need, rely on Exactaform to research for you and develop cutting tool solutions designed to overcome your challenge - whatever it may be.
If you work with a component or application that is of high volume, then every second deserves attention and careful thinking.
Exactaform maintains more capacity than work, ensuring our lead times are as flexible and agile as possible. Plus, our custom-built 43,500ft2 facility has room ready for expansion if a solution needs the space.
Our solutions are proven with in-house testing equipment, which you’re free to inspect. This means we can provide confidence and save you valuable production downtime when testing is required.
Our bespoke solutions don’t simply end at delivery. Instead, we help customers with stocking, logistics, education and manufacturing best practices. The result? Improved processes across the board.
We produce 7,000 PCD tools per month for over 500 customers with the shortest possible lead times.
From BAE and Boeing to Mercedes and Red Bull, our bespoke solutions deliver guaranteed performance, repeatability and confidence.
We create, on average, 350 to 450 new designs per month, giving us unmatched custom tooling experience in the UK.
