Since we run hundreds of lamination tools day in and day out, as well as maintain and rebuild all the tooling we run, we have tremendous hands-on experience and knowledge in building the most productive and problem free tooling. Over the past few years, Orchid has made substantial investments in the latest equipment and technology to support building tooling in-house. Although Orchid builds the majority of its tooling requirements in-house, Orchid also works with leading lamination tool builders for applications that are outside of Orchid’s area of expertise or internal equipment capabilities. Orchid’s custom designed and built lamination dies offer multiple-out solutions to minimize costs and maximize material utilization.
