How CTS Evolved Into Custom Manufacturing

Carbide Tool Services (CTS) was built on a strong foundation of tool repair by helping customers extend tool life, reduce costs, and maintain performance. Over time, that expertise naturally expanded. Today, CTS is not only a trusted repair partner, but also a leader in custom tooling and manufacturing solutions.

From Repair to Manufacturing Expertise

Tool repair provides a unique perspective that goes beyond standard production. By working on worn, damaged, and high-performance tools, CTS has developed a deep understanding of how tools perform in real-world applications.

Specialized Knowledge in Indexable Tooling

We have extensive experience repairing special indexable tooling, which often involves complex geometries and demanding applications. This specialized work requires precision, technical expertise, and a strong understanding of how each component interacts within a machining process.

That same knowledge directly translates into our custom manufacturing capabilities. By understanding how tools fail and where improvements can be made, we are able to design and produce tooling that performs better from the start.

Over 30 Years of Industry Experience

With more than 30 years in the industry, CTS brings a level of experience that few can match. Our team has worked across a wide range of applications, materials, and production environments, giving us the insight needed to solve complex tooling challenges.

This experience allows us to move seamlessly between repair and manufacturing, offering customers a complete solution rather than a single service. Whether extending the life of an existing tool or creating a new one from scratch, we deliver results backed by decades of expertise.

A Full-Service Tooling Partner

Today, Carbide Tool Services is more than a repair shop. We are a full-service tooling partner capable of supporting everything from tool reconditioning to advanced custom manufacturing. Our ability to combine repair knowledge with engineering and machining capabilities allows us to provide smarter, more effective solutions.
