Original tool performance is achieved only through OEM certifi ed reconditioning.

OEMs such as SANDVIK MITSUBISHI SUMITOMO and others recognize Alliance Innovative through certifi cation as a national factory authorized sharpening center for carbide drills.

DRILLS ENDMILLS REAMERS ROUGHERS COUNTERSINKS TAPS SANDVIK CARBIDE TIP HIGH PERFORMANCE HSS SPLIT POINT / PARABOLIC

Reconditioning superiority is achieved through OEM authorized drill tip software, CNC control, virtually every coating available, and over 30 years of cutting tool experience.

Alliance Innovative uses only cutting edge 8 Axis CNC tool & cutter grinders linked with the latest optical video inspection systems for quality assurance and consistent reconditioning every time.

What that means: You get consistent, familiar, superior performance from your tooling over the entire life of the tool.

OEM Certifi cation is granted only after a rigorous inspection process performed by the tool OEM.

OEM certifi cation means your tooling is returned to original condition and original performance.

Alliance Innovative utilizes the worldleaders in coating technology. Through our long-standing relationships with multiple coating facilities, Alliance Innovative can facilitate superior tool coating service and turnaround.

Hunting and gathering tooling for reconditioning, sorting it, packaging it, itemizing purchase orders...

All of these things are keeping you from doing what you want to be doing and also slow down the entire processs of recondtioning your worn tooling.

We can help contain the chaos. Alliance Innovative’s toolbox is the fi rst step in the reconditioning process.

The only thing you need to do is keep it in your shop and fi ll it with worn tooling. Then, just send it to us--we take care of the rest.

What size is toolbox?

Small (1 Gallon) Medium (3 Gallon) Huge (10 Gallon)

What’s Inside toolbox? Shock absorbent foam padding to provide a soft landing every time, lid ties, and plenty of room for your tooling.

Carbide tooling will be returned to you in labeled protective tubes. If a damaged tube crosses our path, it will be replaced with a fresh tube.

Just Fill. We do the sorting and provide an itemized quote. If you prefer to sort before you send, we send a matching confi rmation.

Now you can focus on what matters most to you. The toolbox streamlines tool management between your shop and ours while providing additional protection for your valuable tooling.

What do I do with the toolbox on our end? Keep it in your shop or tool crib as one central location to deposit spent tooling.

Do I have to fi ll our toolbox all the way before sending? Send your tooling for reconditioning when you are ready. Send it half full or keep it as long as you need. For very small orders, you can use our padded reconditioning toolbag or your own packaging.

How do I get the right toolbox for me? We will chose the right toolbox size and quantity for you based on the size of your order. You can change this at any time by requesting a specifi c size and quantity.

8 Axis CNC Reconditioning. The highest quality coatings available. OEM Certifi ed drill reconditioning. Program-controlled reconditioning of endmills, reamers, a wide variety of inserts, and virtually any other cylindrical cutting tool.

major & minor modifi cations

As the Cutting Tool Services division approached its 20th anniversary, we embarked on a plan to rebuild or replace every machine in our shop. Through our partnership with ANCA, we have done just that.

All tooling is produced on CNC tool and cutter grinders equipped with on-board optical measurement and inspection equipment.

Offl ine 3D simulation software allows for “full and true 3D simulation of the grinding process.”

Alliance Innovative can achieve advanced tool modeling and design without taking any machine off production.

In the process of upgrading and overhauling our production equipment, we made some special investments:

Even custom tools have standard features. Every AXIS tool features superior grade carbide with unmatched durability and performance. AXIS can also be manufactured from HSS or cobalt. Every tool is subject to our special CNC hone • technique for improved performance and wear-ability. Better profi le fi nishes for better blade fi nishes.• Enhanced 3 & 4 fl ute cutting geometries for better • chip evacuation.

After nearly 20 years of expertise producing and reconditioning tooling for the turbo blade and impeller industries, we can guarantee a few things about every single AXIS tool.

Because we are certifi ed by companies like Sandvik, Titex, Mitsubishi and more, you get original tool quality and consistency with every regrind.

We can be your one stop shop to avoid sending drills back to multiple OEMs to receive original points.

Our fair pricing remains stable for years at a time, ensuring the value of your reconditioning revenue stream for the long-term.

We confi rm all details of a job with you before proceeding, or if you provide blanket approval we proceed immediately to save time. We can provide any status information you need without you needing to ask.

We sort your tools, automatically provide hard plastic shipping totes and fresh tool tubes when one is damaged, and can provide customized tool labels upon request.

All of our machines are now equipped with the latest technology, allowing horsepower to be pushed to extremes unachievable before. All machines are networked and are now virtually interchangeable for extreme fl exibility and effi ciency.

Off-line simulation software linked to our machines allows us to do set up and prototyping offl ine, freeing up machine time. On board tool inspection creates additional time savings. It all adds up.

All of this made two of our old offerings possible again: The two-week turnaround guarantee on almost every order, and the one-week urgency service for rush orders.

PARTNERSHIPSMore Than Just A Regrind House

With a comprehensive service approach, fast turnaround, exceptional value, and unmatched quality, Alliance Innovative has earned a reputation for excellence in cutting tool services.

Alliance Innovative has over twenty years of experience building partnerships with regional, national, and international cutting tool OEMs, industrial distributors, integrated suppliers, cutter grinding, honing and tool marking OEMs, and major manufacturers in nearly every fi eld of manufacturing. Our partnership capabilities are detailed below.

Branded Reconditioning Let us be your “in-house” reconditioning program.

Most OEMs today have a reconditioning program for their carbide drills and other tooling. Many use a network of service partners rather than truly performing the work “in house.” Few can perform reconditioning work as quickly and effi ciently as Alliance Innovative.

Whether you are an international brand looking for a domestic reconditioning partner, a domestic brand keeping equipment focused on producing new tooling, or any brand interested in developing a reconditioning program, we can help.

Production Partner / Private Label Tooling

Alliance Innovative can be your design and production partner for the entire range of production and distribution formats, from direct catalog sales to industrial distribution. Companies come to Alliance Innovative with the following objectives:

Dual Sourcing: Spread the risk of an • existing tool lineSupplemental Production: • Supplement your in-house capacity by outsourcing to us Catalog Expansion: Offer tooling • beyond standard Drills and Endmills, such as High- Performance tooling and Non-standard sizesPrivate Label Tooling: Industrial • distributors and others without production capabilities interested in a house line of tooling or custom tool offerings

Alliance Innovative Offers:

Alliance Innovative achieved ISO9001 and AS9100B certifi cations in 2007, the highest quality and effi ciency certifi cations in the manufacturing industry.

Certifi cation was granted after 10 months, less than half the 18-24 months it normally takes to establish an operational quality management system and achieve both certifi cations simultaneously.

The fast accomplishment was particularly noteworthy considering it occured at the same time as a corporate acquisition, Lean Manufacturing consultation, and relocation to a new facility, all of which kept the company moving at a frenetic pace.

In 2010 Alliance Innovative revised its Quality Management system to be in compliance with AS9100 Revision C. The company received certifi cation to the new AS9100 revision at the close of 2011.
