Special Indexable Tooling Systems
Special Indexable Cutting Tools by Application
Joint Production Technology designs and manufactures special indexable cutting tools engineered for specific high-volume production applications. Since 1971, JPT has solved the tooling challenges that off-the-shelf catalog tooling cannot — from differential case and carrier machining to disc brake, axle, cylinder head, and transmission case production. Every tool is engineered around your part geometry, your machine, and your cycle time goals.

Why Manufacturers Choose JPT Tooling
JPT is not a catalog tooling company. Every solution is custom-engineered to reduce cycle times, extend tool life, and improve part quality in demanding production environments. Our engineering team works directly with your team from initial design through production and ongoing support. As an ISO 9001:2015 certified manufacturer and SAM.gov registered defense supplier based in Macomb, Michigan, JPT brings the quality systems and engineering depth that automotive, aerospace, military, and medical manufacturers depend on.
Beyond new tooling, JPT repairs and reconditions indexable and special tooling from any manufacturer, and builds direct replacements for discontinued tooling from legacy brands such as Valenite Modco, Komet, and Master Tool, so your line keeps running when the original source is gone.

The JPT Way
Most tooling problems aren’t solved by buying off the shelf. They’re solved by understanding the application, the machine, and the process — then engineering the right solution.
Cutting tools. Fixturing. Complete production solutions. That’s been the JPT way since 1971. No catalogs. No guessing. Just engineering.
