On the Forefront of Tooling Manufacture

The only way to make a high-quality powdered metal part is to start with a precision powdered metal tool.

In our early days, there were no available sources of powdered metal compaction tooling to meet our requirements. An in-house tooling shop was a necessity. Now, even with exceptional outside tooling shops available, it is a clear-cut competitive advantage. With decades of acquired expertise, our tool design, tool material knowledge, and manufacturing capabilities are unmatched in the powdered metal industry.

Come to us with your most challenging concept drawing, and our team will produce a design for PM and a high-quality functional tool to bring your part from print into production.

The expertise of our engineers and toolmakers:

  • Allows us to efficiently build, test, and incorporate innovative tooling details

  • Reduces lead time on all of your samples

  • Enables us to react quickly to any necessary changes

  • Minimizes production downtime to improve on-time delivery

  • Lowers your tooling costs on current and future projects

In some cases, we determine that using an outside vendor will allow us to achieve improved delivery times for our customers. If so, we will select one of our trusted tooling partners, whose capabilities we have verified, to build and deliver the tools.

Well-made tools create the foundation for long-lasting, precision components. When you source products with Keystone, you have our assurance of incomparable quality, because the most skilled workers in the industry design, craft, and manufacture our tools.
