Tool Tech has been building, modifying, and repairing stamping dies, fixtures, and specialty tooling since 1985. Progressive dies, transfer dies, compound dies, and single-hit dies across steel, aluminum, stainless, and high-strength alloys. Forty years of tool and die experience backs every job we take on.
Tool Tech is a full-service tool and die company in Springfield, Ohio. We design, build, modify, and repair metal stamping dies, tools, fixtures, and specialty machines for manufacturers across automotive, aerospace, medical, and industrial sectors.
Most tool and die shops stop at the build. What separates Tool Tech is the depth of in-house capability behind every program. Our designers work in SolidWorks with Logopress3, AutoCAD, CATIA, NX, and AutoForm simulation. Our toolmakers and CNC machinists build die components to tight tolerances on a 25-machine floor. Our wire EDM department handles intricate die details in hardened tool steel. Our grinding department finishes die components to spec. And our CMM inspection department verifies everything before it ships.
That is not a vendor network. That is one shop, one team, forty years of experience, and accountability that does not transfer to a subcontractor when something goes wrong.
Die Design & Engineering In-house die design using SolidWorks with Logopress3, AutoCAD, CATIA, and NX. Strip layouts, die simulation, springback analysis, and full feasibility checks before any steel is cut. AutoForm simulation catches forming problems in the design stage, not on the press floor. Our designers work from your prints, models, or a concept and produce fully detailed solid designs to your standards.
Die Construction We build progressive dies, transfer dies, compound dies, line dies, and single-hit dies across steel, aluminum, stainless steel, and high-strength alloys. In-die tapping and stud-and-nut insertion are standard capabilities. Programs range from small prototype tooling to large complex automotive structural dies. Every die is built, inspected, and documented in-house before it leaves our facility.
Die Modification & Engineering Changes Production requirements change. When they do, Tool Tech efficiently handles engineering change requests for existing tooling with minimal out-of-plant time. We reverse engineer tooling when original prints do not exist, using our Hexagon Absolute Arm with AS1 laser scanning, Keyence XM5000
In-House Die Component Manufacturing Every die component is manufactured in-house on our CNC machining floor, wire EDM department, and surface grinding department. We do not farm out the details to outside vendors. A die component can go from design through CNC machining, wire EDM, heat treat coordination, grinding, and CMM inspection without leaving our facility. That keeps your lead time tight and your quality consistent.
CMM Inspection & Die Qualification Every die goes through our CMM inspection department before delivery. Hexagon Absolute Arm with laser scanning, Keyence XM5000 Mobile CMM, Brown and Sharpe CMM, and Mitutoyo CMM provide the inspection depth needed to verify complex die geometry, produce dimensional reports, and support first-off approval processes. We document the work so you have a record when you need it.
Tool Tech builds dies for metal stamping operations running steel, aluminum, stainless steel, high-strength steel, and specialty alloys. Common programs include automotive body panel tooling, structural component dies, bracket and frame tooling, appliance component dies, aerospace structural part tooling, and medical device component tooling.
Die types we build include progressive dies for high-volume multi-station stamping, transfer dies for large or complex parts that need to move between stations, compound dies for simultaneous cutting and forming operations, line dies for large panel and structural programs, and single-hit dies for simpler blanking and forming operations.
For customers who need a tool and die maker that understands the full manufacturing context, not just the die build, Tool Tech brings 40 years of production experience to every program. We understand how a die will run in a press, how the material will behave across a production run, and how to design tooling that holds up over time rather than just passing first-off approval.
Tool Tech serves manufacturers across automotive, aerospace, medical, defense, logistics, and industrial sectors, and we are not limited to any one of them. If your program requires precision tooling, CNC machining, wire EDM, water jet cutting, or custom machine building, our shop has the equipment and experience to handle it. We have served OEM and Tier 1 suppliers, medical device manufacturers, aerospace contractors, and industrial operations from our Springfield facility for over 40 years. If you make parts that require tight tolerances and reliable delivery, we are the right shop.
Tool Tech is located at 4901 Urbana Road in Springfield, Ohio. We have been serving manufacturers as a tool and die company from this facility since 1985, building tooling for customers across the Dayton metro, Columbus corridor, and manufacturing operations throughout western and central Ohio.
Unlike tool and die shops that focus on a single service, Tool Tech handles the full scope of a die program from first design through final inspection and delivery. If you are searching for a tool and die shop near you in the Springfield or Dayton area, Tool Tech runs one of the most complete in-house capabilities in the region. Design, CNC machining, wire EDM, grinding, inspection, and delivery all under one roof means your tooling program does not get split across vendors and schedules.
We also serve customers across Ohio and the broader Midwest who need a tool and die maker with genuine depth behind the work. Our delivery fleet handles regional logistics and we coordinate shipping for customers further out. Forty years in Springfield means we are not going anywhere.
Whether you need a new progressive die built from scratch, a modification to existing tooling, or one of the most complete tool and die shops in Ohio to rely on for the long term, tell us what you are working on. Quotes on standard tool and die programs typically come back within a few business days.
