This phrase is often heard on the market as soon as it comes to buying special millers and summarizes well the position of the Swiss company. Renowned for its ability to develop special tools "no one else can do", Gloor has based its organization on the willingness to find solutions for its customers.
Gloor is for instance a pioneer in thread whirling with more than 20 years of experience in the field.
Listening to the market If Gloor is specialized in the realization of custom shaped tools, the company also offers a wide range of standard tools. Mr Fred Gloor, CEO says: "Our goal is to give our customers solutions to work more efficiently". This materializes in the form of tools enabling them to gain in productivity or quality but also in the form of actual price per finished part (faster cutting or avoiding secondary operations). He adds: "Another aspect of this efficiency is our ability to provide a whole product range (custom and standard) as well as services to strengthen their performance in their respective markets".
Global solution... And to achieve the production of extraordinary tools, the company works seamlessly with customers. If someone wishes to order a special tool and simply sends a drawing, he will probably miss many potential benefits! Why? Simply because since 51 years, the know-how acquired by Gloor in machining process is very broad. Mr Gloor says: “We always prefer to work from scratch, namely the piece to machine. We have thousands of references cases and we offer our customers this experience” . This broad expertise is shared with customers, but what about confidentiality? Mr Gloor is very clear on this point: "We’re renowned for our expertise and our skills, but also for our ethics. We work for instance with all the big names of the medical field and they know that one dedicated solution is not sold to others. Justified customer confidence is also an important element that characterizes our company".
...and exceptional tools Gloor is leader in the manufacture of special shaped tools with logarithmic relief grinding and form end mills (straight and spiral fluted). Thanks to the special production process it is possible for Gloor to produce tools with more teeth to make form milling cutters with a minimal concave corner radius of 0.02 mm. We will go into details of the product range and capacities of the Gloor tools in our next issue of eurotec.
Next opportunity to meet Gloor on an exhibition: Medtec Stuttgart from March 22 to 24, 2011, booth 6289, Hall 6.
