Advanced Carbide Tooling (ACT) has marked the 20th anniversary of its formation with the appointment of a new board of directors and a re-organisation to increase efficiency and customer service.

Advanced Carbide Tooling (ACT) has marked the 20th anniversary of its formation with the appointment of a new board of directors and a re-organisation of functions to increase efficiency and customer service.

The company's founder, Keith London, becomes chairman, with Denis Houghton appointed managing director, Craig Wieland sales director and Karl London commercial director.

ACT has been the UK distributor for Mircona face-grooving and parting-off tools since its formation in 1984 and also distributes a number of other specialist tooling systems in the UK.

More recently it developed its own range of parting-off and grooving tools with cutting widths from 0.5mm to 2.2mm, which is being sold in the UK and through distributors on the Continent.

Sister company Advanced Microlubrication manufactures and installs vegetable-based precision lubrication systems as an alternative to flood coolant.

"ACT is well established as one of the UK's leading specialist tooling suppliers, particularly in face-grooving.

The new structure will enable the directors to focus on specific areas of responsibility and build on our expertise and reputation," said Keith London.
