Professionalism at Proto-Cutter means servicing our customers’ needs quickly and conscientiously, and staying on the cutting edge of technology to consistently produce the finest reamers in the industry. By maintaining our “Total Commitment,” we provide a competitive advantage that will aid you in your marketplace.

2. Custom sharpening results in precise accuracy and exceptional finish

Because we custom sharpen each and every reamer to its exact specified profile and tolerance, you are able to achieve hole size to within .0005”. Hole straightness can be maintained to within .0002”, depending on the hole’s depth and prior operation. With Proto-Cutter reamers, you can achieve a surface finish of 32 RMs, or even better in some circumstances. By achieving this high level of finish, our reamers eliminate the need for time-consuming grinding, honing or burnishing operations. That and dramatically reducing your cost per hole.

3. Extended tool life means less machine downtime

The unique design of Proto-Cutter reamers extends reamer life significantly over that of conventional reamers, giving you increased tool repeatability and less downtime for more holes reamed per year and increased productivity. Proto-Cutter reamers give you “The Most Value For Your Hole Dollar.”

4. Quick and consistent on-time delivery means less downtime for you

Our excellent on-time delivery record is consistently better than any of our competitors and means less downtime for you. When you’re in a bind, don’t get behind, pick up the phone and call us.

5. Engineering assistance at no cost makes tool selection easy

Our sales engineers have a broad working knowledge of materials, hardness, feeds, speeds and many other factors that contribute to the performance of the reamer. They will help you choose a reamer and a sharpening profile that will accomplish your hole finishing requirements and productivity goals. Their experience is available without cost or obligation. Just call us.

6. Reconditioning services mean single-sourcing and cost-efficiency

Reconditioning your reamers provides maximum tool life and results in decreased tool costs overall. As your single-source for both new reamers and reconditioning, Proto-Cutter will maximize your tool cost efficiency. In reamer conditioning, we precisely restore the controlled cutting edges through lead sharpening, resizing or replacing carbide tips and sharpening them to the original specifications.

7. Computer data base means quick and accurate re-ordering

We maintain an extensive computer data base file for each customer, recording information such as your tool numbers, reamer sizes, profile selections, and more. With this information readily accessible, each new order you place can be quickly and accurately duplicated.
