Tooling

Niche strategy and maximum service

December 2010

In the field of tooling for Micro-technology, users face technical challenges day after day. Accordingly, manufacturers of tools must be as close as possible to their customers to give them answers quickly and efficiently. DIXI Polytool (Le Locle, Switzerland) has perfectly understood this. A network of qualified salesmen reinforced by application technicians is constantly in search of solutions for its customers.

40% of the production of DIXI consist of special tools. Mr Schuler says: " This percentage remains constant. When the volume of production for a special tool reaches a certain threshold, it becomes standard, but as we develop constantly tailored new tools, the ratio remains the same" . To cope with the production of these special tools, the company has implemented a specialized department located outside of the normal workflow. Operating in close relationship with research and development and application engineers, this is where customers’ solutions hatch.

Always looking for solutions If DIXI Polytool offers customized and standard tools, it is also to provide a complete solution to its customers. Mr Schuler says: "We are located in the center of an exceptional area, the number of companies at the forefront of technical development is very important. Therefore, it is easy to work with these companies to develop our tools". These deep contacts guarantee the solutions proposed by the company

Complete service DIXI Polytool offers a high end service in term of special tools. But the manufacturer is not ashamed of its offer in standard tools. In fact, often what is standard here would be considered special or impossible elsewhere. As an example, the 1131 helical drill is available every hundredths of mm from diameter 0.05 mm to 2.49 mm, this in right and left version, coated or not. To complement these benefits, the manufacturer also offers an "all brands" regrinding service.

You encounter machining challenges in the "small and precise" world? Why not trying DIXI Polytool’s solutions?
