In-House Precision Tool Making 

Regardless of the size of your business, tooling represents not just an investment of capital but a cornerstone of supply chain stability. At Winward Engineering, we understand that well-crafted tooling is essential for reliable production. Our dedicated team of tool makers focus on manufacturing and maintaining our Metal Spinning and Metal Pressing tooling, ensuring repetitive results at competitive prices. 

In-House CAD 

Our in-house CAD capabilities ensure a seamless transition from design to production. We primarily work with DXF and STEP files, but we’re also fully equipped to view other CAD formats.  
 
To streamline the quotation process, we request that any CAD drawing is also sent in a PDF or 2D format. 

Expert Tool Making in Aldridge, Walsall 

Our factory is located at the heart of the UK in Aldridge, Walsall. We are just 10 minutes away from the M6 and 30 minutes away from Birmingham, giving us an ideal location to serve both UK and international customers. 

Continual Investment in Stock Tooling 

We continually invest in our range of stock Metal Spinning and Metal Pressing tooling including:

and many more... 
If your project requires new tooling, we begin by evaluating the most cost-effective method to deliver the results that you need. After the initial quotation stage, our experienced CAD team will design the tooling for our in-house tooling department. Utilising both CNC and traditional lathes, our expert tool makers will produce the precision tooling needed for our demanding processes. If the tooling is made from steel, we will then perform soft testing to ensure dimensional accuracy. If the steel tooling passes the testing, it will be sent for sub-contract hardening, to ensure consistent results. 
 
We design, manufacture and maintain our tooling in-house to offer competitive and affordable tooling for our customers, and to ensure that every tool can provide scalable manufacturing.
