Press Down? Emergency Extrusion Tooling, Answered the Same Business Day.

Let’s get your press running again. Our press tooling team serves 120+ customers running 2 to 20 presses each. When you call, you’ll reach someone ready to talk about your press specs and get to work.

Same-Business-Day Emergency Response

Every emergency request gets a real phone conversation with a technical rep. the same business day, never more than 24 hours.

What to Have Ready When You Call

The more details you give us on that first call, the faster we can get a replacement moving. Some things that help:

Your press size and tonnage
A photo of the tool and the damage
The print or part number
How soon you need it in-hand

Don’t have all of it? Call us anyway. We’ll work through what’s missing on the phone. A press that’s down shouldn’t wait on paperwork.

How to Prevent an Emergency Call

A press that’s run out of dummy blocks or a cracked container should never be the reason your press sits.

We keep dummy blocks in stock for 90+ customers, including quick-change designs built for fast rotation. We can stock yours, too.
We recommend keeping three containers in rotation: one in the press, one on standby, and one getting relined or repaired.

For our customers, downtime costs an average $2,500/hr. Double or triple that for a large press. An ounce of prevention is worth the $60,000+ you’ll save in unplanned downtime.

Tooling in Hand in Days, Not Weeks

Whatever the problem, we work through it with you and you have tooling in days, not weeks.

CONTAINER RELINE: relined and delivered in 3 days
NEW CONTAINER: built, delivered, and back in the press in 8 days
SHEAR BLADE: delivered to a new customer, no prior relationship, in 3 days

Those are real examples of what’s happened and a fair picture of what we mean by fast.
