KOMET of America has announced the addition of NTM, Inc. as the newest member of the KOMET SERVICE network. NTM will be licensed to regrind and refurbish KOMET tools to KOMET quality standards, manufacture solid carbide tools and provide KOMET brand standard solid carbide tools. NTM will serve the Upper Midwest region, including Minnesota, western Wisconsin, northern Iowa and North and South Dakota.
"We are very excited to sign NTM, Inc. as a KOMET SERVICE Partner," said Tom Whennen, Manager, KOMET SERVICE for North America. "Adding NTM to our network not only brings the Minneapolis metro area a local source for tool refurbishment and regrinding and the manufacture of new special tools, it also reflects our commitment to expanding KOMET SERVICE across North America."
"Our team at NTM, Inc. is truly excited to have joined the KOMET SERVICE network," said Pat Mullins, President and CEO of NTM, Inc. "To have a strategic partnership with a highly engineered and quality tool manufacturer is quite an honor. In the tooling industry, this is a perfect recipe for great customer service, design and engineering expertise."
"We began this program in North America in 2010. Now, with NTM, we have six partners, with more set to join by year's end," said Whennen. "This unique program benefits KOMET, benefits our partners and benefits our customers."
As part of its commitment to accuracy and quality, NTM has been in the process of obtaining ISO 9001 certification, with an anticipated certification date of December 2014. "This qualification, along with membership in the KOMET SERVICE network, will assure NTM's customers that their tools are precise, giving them the confidence they need to use their tools in sensitive industries such as medical and aerospace," said a company spokesperson. "KOMET of America stands behind its partners, offering them the training, support and technology needed to produce or regrind tools to the highest standards possible. With the KOMET SERVICE network, customers can get the quality tools and service they need from KOMET from a trusted, local source in their area."
NTM, Inc. and KOMET of America planned to celebrate the addition of NTM as a KOMET SERVICE partner with a grand opening ceremony on June 12 at NTM's Minneapolis facility.
