TADCO Tight Tolerance (TT) Tooling™

TADCO TT™ Tooling offers similar benefits to TADCO’s Super Tooling™, but allows for field

replaceable bushings while retaining an extremely tight tolerance.  TADCO’s exclusive technology

precisely controls hole to hole locations.  TT™ Tooling can use standard bushing configurations

as well as special Super Tooling-style pins and bushings.

TADCO Super Tooling™

TADCO’s Super Tooling™ offers extremely precise close tolerance tooling for applications requiring

extra tight control.  Bushing replacement for Super Tooling™ is done at our factory to hold the extra

tight tolerances.  Super Tooling™ is packaged with a special hole design, then coupled with custom

finished tight tolerance pin and bushings.

Lamination Tooling & Transport Plates

TADCO’s strict adherence to quality standards and exclusive use of custom alloys makes a world of difference 

when producing tough multillayer PCB’s. Every order of tooling plates comes with a Coordinates Measuring

Machine Report and Certificate of Compliance traceable to MIL standards. In addition, TADCO can manufacture

Lamination and Transport Plates for any press system; both manual and automatic load and unload. TADCO’s

specialized knowledge of the PCB lamination processes as well as metallurgical and heat treating sciences

combined with highly graded steel alloys allows us to produce the finest tooling available today.
