Abstract
A troublesome tool may represent capital investment standing idle and the toolroom itself, therefore, calls for efficient management if capital expenditure is to be successfully deployed. Production engineers may cast around for means of saving costs but seldom pay attention to the toolroom. Is this because toolmakers are craftsmen and it is implied, therefore, they always work effectively when making tools or repairing old ones? This may be so, but there are many cases in the past, the present and, no doubt, in the future where tools costs are far too high relative to the product involved.
