The George Whalley Company divests cutting tools division, focuses on coolant-fed tooling

“This move allows us to focus exclusively on what we are most passionate about: our Coolant-Fed Tooling & Systems® product line,” stated Howard Whalley, President of The George Whalley Company. “Our focus on these products will become increasingly apparent in 2011, as we introduce new coolant-fed innovations for multi-axis machining applications, high-speed machining applications, modular tooling and more.” The George Whalley Company was founded in 1937 as a distributorship for cutting tools and industrial supplies. The Coolant-Fed Tooling & Systems Division emerged in 1967 to fill a niche in the industry which the limits of conventional tooling could not fill. Over the past five decades, the company has developed many coolant-fed innovations including unique rotary-type coolant glands, coolant machine tool retrofit systems and specialized holders and sealing devices for coolant-fed tooling.www.coolantfedtooling.com
