Logistics
In cases where tool re-sharpening will be an ongoing requirement, Ultracut can send you a special Re-sharpen plastic safe case ensuring the safe arrival of your tools to us and then back to you. These boxes are waterproof, shock proof and extremely sturdy, meaning quite heavy tools can be safely delivered.
In situations where the customer has multiple departments requiring re-sharpen boxes, Ultracut is fully equipped to have the department name or logo machined into the top of the box, therefore avoiding any confusion.
Recoating
Ultracut also offers the option of having your tools re-coated to bring them back to their original condition. These coatings can include TiN, TiCN, ALTiN, TiALN etc.
Depending on the material being machined and the coating that was applied to the tool, these coatings can offer a huge performance gain and vastly increase tool life.
