Press Release: JR-Tools Ltd to strengthen its resharpening service


JR-Tools Ltd, Finland’s biggest manufacturer of special metal cutting tools for metal industry, is increasing its resharpening service capacity with a new machine investment.

The company has also launched a new JR Label for new and resharpened tools. 

JR-Tools Ltd has invested in a new machine designed for resharpening of gear shaper cutters. “With this new machine, we have been able to multiply the resharpening capacity of gear shaper cutters. The delivery time is also significantly shorter thanks to the new machine”, says Veli-Matti Uusitalo, Sales Director of JR-Tools.  

The company has also launched a new JR Label for both new and resharpened tools. The label is attached on the plastic storage tube of the tool and it can include product information as well as a barcode. “We started developing the JR Label as a result of customer feedback. Our customers wanted a solution that makes sorting and storing the tools quick and easy”, tells CEO of JR-Tools Pasi Rönn.

Developing the resharpening service of cutting tools is one of the cornerstones of the company’s operations. The most difficult times of the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of the resharpening service because many customers preferred to resharpen their tools instead of investing in new ones. During 2021, the situation on the market and among the company’s customers is looking brighter. “There’s an increased demand for our products and services which naturally means new recruitments. We are also planning to invest in new machines in the next couple of years”, says Rönn.
