SPECIAL TOOLS

What are special tools?

Special tools are specialized tools that are individually manufactured for specific tasks, machines, or production processes. They are also referred to as special tools. Unlike standard tools, which are used in many applications and are available in common sizes and shapes, special tools are tailor-made and precisely tailored to the requirements of the respective application. Special tools are often individually manufactured or specially adapted to optimally perform a specific task. Standardized cutting tools with different dimensions or special geometries are therefore also considered special tools. They are either custom-made or adapted by regrinding existing tools. Carbide tools are often used to ensure the desired precision and durability.
Where are special tools and specialized tools used?
Due to their special design, special tools enable more precise, faster, or easier work on complex or unusual tasks. Special tools ensure precise results that are difficult to achieve with standard tools. For example, for processing special metals or shapes in mechanical engineering or the automotive industry, for the finest work in precision mechanics or prototype construction.
