As Helios Gear Products continues to grow and expand their gear-cutting tool offerings, their seasoned application engineering support and competitive lead times are helping manufacturers deliver during supply chain instability. 

With globally competitive pricing and proven domestic support from the expert Helios team, custom cutting tools are being delivered in weeks, not months, keeping job shops and high-production manufacturers competitive. From hobbing to shaping, power skiving, worm milling, and more, Helios is supporting manufacturing with tool design and delivery needs, production estimates, reverse engineering, process optimization, and fixture design expertise.

“We were able to get the tools and create the parts, and finish them, in a very short timeframe that nobody else would've been able to do… so without Helios’ help we wouldn't have been able to produce those parts in the 8-10 weeks that they required, which usually would’ve taken anywhere from 16-24 weeks“ said Pete Dimascio at Delta Research.

With applications engineers on-call for custom gear-cutting tool design, gear manufacturers can receive dedicated domestic support for engineered solutions, right when they need it. Reflecting on a recent delivery, Jared Lyford from Forest City Gear says, "these are solid carbide tools with custom proportions, so these are special tools. The performance has been nothing but stellar... I would say 40% better tool life than the incumbent." Helios welcomes new gear-cutting tool design challenges and is excited to continue to support North American manufacturers with unrivaled gear-cutting tool solutions.
