/04 — Custom tooling & fabrication
Custom tooling for sheet metal parts.
Dies, fixtures and welding jigs, designed and built in our own tool room in Chennai — with quick turnaround and pricing set for production runs, not tool-room vanity. The same bench that builds the tool runs it on presses from 5 to 250 tonnes.
Own tool room · typical die build: 3–4 DAYS SIMPLE · 2–3 WEEKS COMPLEX
Why our tooling turns
around faster and costs less
The tool never leaves the building
Built, tried and corrected at our bench — no freight, no waiting on an outside toolmaker’s queue.
We review the drawing for cost first
Material, number of operations, which features need a tool and which do not — we come back with what we would change and why.
Samples come off the production tool
Not a soft prototype — what you approve is what you receive, run after run.
Priced against the run it serves
Tooling is quoted with the production job in view, because we make our money running parts, not building dies.

Send the drawing. We’ll come back
with the tooling route and price.
A drawing, a sketch or a sample part is enough to start. You get back a cost-to-make read, the tooling quote and a sample date — answered from the plant, not a call centre.
Common questions
Do you build tooling for parts you don't already make?
Yes. Custom dies, fixtures and welding jigs for sheet metal parts are our tool room's daily work — send the drawing and we quote the tool and the part together.
How fast can you build a die for a sheet metal part?
Typical die build is 3–4 days for simpler dies and 2–3 weeks for complex ones, from drawing approval. Because the tool is built and corrected at our own bench, sample rounds don't wait on an outside toolmaker.
What makes the pricing cost-effective?
We review the drawing for cost to make before tooling — material, operations, which features need a tool — and quote the die against the production run it will serve.
What formats can I send?
A PDF, DWG or STEP drawing, a sketch or a physical sample part is enough to start the review.
