Aerospace

With technological and material advancements the aerospace industry is experiencing huge changes. The size of new craft is doubling, which is stark contrast to the halving of development time. This pressure to make prototypes into finished products is a challenge for manufacturers and the process they adopt and the new wave of composite materials mean most are in uncharted territory and tooling and application can quite literally make or break the job at hand. As aerospace has evolved into commercial space travel, innovation has forced the need to reduce weight and material innovation has lead to cutting tool innovation as composites by their very nature are difficult to machine.
ALCA TOOLS LTD are proud to supply combined power of Walter, Walter Titex and Walter Prototyp and together we are able to deliver far more than tools. When you have a application and need tooling to produce that component, we are right with you, from concept to finished product, but it doesn’t stop there. We then revisit time and time again in order to see if the process can be improved upon to increase output and reduce cycle times. We are a single source for complete machining processes. From engineering support to tool management, and from titanium, high temperature alloys to composite materials, no one else stands beside you to achieve your high standards as efficiently and cost effectively as possible like ALCA TOOLS LTD. Contact us today and let us help you achieve more.

Automotive

More than any other sector, the automotive industry is currently undergoing a radical shift in attitude. For decades, performance determined the direction; today, it goes without saying that the joy of driving also includes the “joy of energy efficiency”. A new ecological awareness demands the development of new technologies with a degree of radicalism that was previously unknown technologies that are giving rise to truly innovative components and ultimately to new auto-mobiles that are as energy-efficient as they are appealing.
Add to this the difficult economic circumstances, which are proving a formidable challenge for automotive suppliers in particular: Combined with models that are changing at a rapid pace, productivity must be increased while maintaining the same high quality in the face of profit margins which are still low.
ALCA TOOLS LTD are proud to supply brands such as Walter, Walter Titex and Walter Prototyp that provide you with high-tech tools and machining solutions from a professional supplier of the automotive industry for complete machining operations, all from one single source. Providing the tools to achieve your goals for innovation, flexibility, quality, and productivity − that’s our goal.

Energy Generation

The manufacturers of plant and components for power generation, be they wind turbine generator systems, gas or coal-fired power stations, are faced with the challenge of constructing plant that delivers a maximum energy yield at the least possible cost. The cost-effective and precise machining of components made of the most varied of materials plays an important role here.
ALCA TOOLS LTD is proud to supply Walter, Walter Titex, Walter Prototyp and Walter Multiply to our clients.
We can cover the entire machining process for the production environment. We implement innovative machining solutions for turning, drilling, milling and threading. To this end, we focus on offering one of the world’s largest standard tool ranges and providing customised special tool solutions for efficient metal machining.

Rail

All around the world, the requirements for the transportation of people and goods are increasing, which is turning the rail industry into an important market for the future.
Railway infrastructure is one of the deciding factors for the economic success of a region. In the process, the rail industry must deal with the growing demands for mobility and flexibility and meet the challenges set by raw material shortages and environmental protection considerations.
For high-speed solutions which include the best possible levels of safety while at the same time improving profitability, rail transportation requires an innovative and reliable manufacturing partner such as Walter, who have a wealth of experience in rail technology and know how to solve the problems involved: ALCA TOOLS LTD supply Walter products to provide you with complete solutions for all machining requirements.

Medical

Performance tools are needed for medical precision engineering. At ALCA TOOLS we understand the specific challenges of the medical industry and we have the expertise and product ranges to improve surface finish, reduce cycle times and increase productivity. We provide optimized machining solutions and cutting tools for your specific applications.

Our core product program is built around a range of tools designed for the general machining industry and encompasses both indexable and rotary drilling, milling, threading and turning tools.

Indexable Cutting Tools

With a product range of around 49,000 catalogue tools for milling, drilling, turning and threading, Walter is a complete service provider for the metalworking industry. Specialists working in the relevant competence brands jointly develop integrated processing solutions for machining. Here their comprehensive expertise in the automotive sector, the aerospace industry, energy, rail transport and general mechanical engineering stands them in good stead.

They are the world’s leading manufacturer of precision measuring equipment, offering a huge range of products from micrometers, calipers and dial gauges to hardness testers, vision measuring systems and 3D coordinate measuring machines. In addition to a diverse product range Mitutoyo also offers comprehensive product supports and further specialist services such as calibration, sub-contract measurement, gauging technology and training.

PPE & Safety

No matter which industry you are in, if you have to go onto a site where tools are being used, chances are there will be extremely stringent rules regarding the Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) you wear. It is very important when using any tool to ensure that you are wearing the appropriate equipment for the job. Lack of preparation towards the risks the job can bring could result in serious injury. The range of protective equipment comes in a number of models and standards and it is important to ensure that the right standard is used for the appropriate job, in accordance with the manufacturers’ instructions.
