An End Mill Makes Its Way Around the World
We started with end mills, but now we’ve a full line of tools for milling, drilling, turning, and threading. These tools boast specialized geometries, cutting-edge grades, and high-performance coatings.
Take our 35382 end mill series, for example. It is in use more than a million times worldwide. Whether for single-part or series production, our CNC end mills excel in service life, smooth operation, and cutting performance.
And that’s not all. Our product portfolio continues to grow. With every new tool, we improve.
A Look Back: The '90s – The Decade We Were Founded
When TOOL FACTORY started in 1995, the world was a different place – at least from a technological standpoint. The ’90s were full of inventions, some of which we now look back on with a smile. Here are some of the highlights:
1990World Wide Web
We had already mastered precision when the internet was still competing with landlines.
1992SMS
Back then, it was 160 characters; today we have more than 160 tool variants.
1995DVD
We 've not only survived the DVD.
1996USB Connection
Our tool is a perfect fit right from the start – unlike the USB plug.
1998Google
If you google TOOL FACTORY, you're doing everything right.
1995 – Back When Precision Came By Way Of Fax
Do you remember?
Fax machine
Tools were selected by catalogue – and ordered by fax. (Still works today, by the way.)
Our tools definitely need less care.
TAMAGOTCHI
NOKIA3210
The service life of our tools is comparable to that of a Nokia battery. It runs and runs and runs.
Anyone who used to listen to music while running with a Discman knows that stability matters.

Our MnDLC coatings would have been real eye-catchers in the ’90s.
Amidst all of this, there’s TOOL FACTORY, a company that was established for the purpose of enhancing the ease, precision, and reliability of machining.
Much has changed since then, but one thing has stood the test of time: You can always rely on our precision tools.
Thank you for 30 years of trust!
We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all the production managers, purchasers, CNC machinists and partners who have been with us since 1995, as well as to those who have joined us over the years. We want to celebrate with you!
Join us for anniversary campaigns, tool highlights, and the realization that the best solutions are born from experience, not chance.
