New tooling built to your drawings, and repairs that keep your existing tooling in production.
Dies and punches are the heart of a stamping, forming or heading operation. When one wears out or breaks, the whole line waits. ABS Tool & Machining builds new tool and die components to your drawings and repairs the tooling you already run, so parts keep coming off the press.
Every component is made to the print, fitted, and checked for the clearances the job needs. Whether you need a complete set of details or one replacement punch, you work directly with a skilled toolmaker from quote to delivery.

Can you fix a die that chipped or cracked?
Often, yes. Bring it in and a toolmaker will look at the damage and tell you whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
I don't have a print. Can you still make the part?
Yes. We can measure the old component and make a replacement from it.
My line is down. How fast can you help?
Bring it in right away. Line-down repairs get priority.
