Services

It is the mission of Diamond Tool & Die, Inc. to provide our customers with punctual service, excellent quality, fine craftsmanship, efficient prices, and a sincere interest in your objectives. We offer a broad range of services and can assist with your project from prototype to production. We specialize in CNC (and manual) turning and milling with 4th and 5th Axis capabilities. We work with all metals and plastics.

We have the capability to turn parts as small as .06ӯ and as large as 42ӯ. That is just one of the reasons to make DTD your go-to shop. In addition, we can facilitate outside services through our qualified partners (powder coating, wet paint, plating, heat treating, laser etching, etc.).

CNC Turning

1/16” to 40” Maximum swing (10’ between centers)

Our Mori Seiki SL-1A, with YASNAC LX-1 control panel, allows DTD to turn stock as small as 1/8.”

Our Okuma LB45 II horizontal lathe, combined with our OSP-E100L control panel, allows for fast, full-power CNC turning of large parts. It’s travel (X 33” Z 80”, 22” over the slide), allows Diamond Tool & Die to produce precision parts as large as 33” Ø and shafts as wide as 21” Ø x 80” long.

Our Dainichi DM 102 x 300 manual lathe increases our swing to 42”, allowing DTD to turn precision parts 42” Ø x 10’.

Wire EDM

Two (2) Agie 100 wire EDMs were added for accurate, exotic, and/or intricate unconventional machining capacity. The ED Machining support role for 2nd operators enables Diamond Tool & Die to be a full-service machining job shop with very responsive turn-around times. In-house ED Machining can reduce lead times from weeks to a matter of days or just hours. The Agies allow the team at DTD to be a creative, imaginative and innovative manufacturing job shop.

Quality Assurance

The Zeiss Contura takes Diamond Tool & Die manufacturing to the highest standards. The VAST Scanning Head provides graphical details of form, roundness, flatness, composite true position, angularity, concentricity and cylindricity. With the ability to capture thousands of data points during a Continuous Contact Scan, the graphical reports provided are an incredible tool for troubleshooting a manufacturing set-up or any Fixturing issue. With Contura’s speed and accuracy, DTD has added contract inspection of parts to our list of capabilities.
