Milling challenging materials like tough steels, stainless steels, superalloys and titanium cause built-up or notched edges and broken inserts that increase tooling costs and cause unexpected downtime.

To ensure sustainability and efficient distribution operations, Seco Tools has opened a new fully automated facility in Den Hoorn, Netherlands. The new Distribution Center will service all of Europe and provide capacity for future growth while further strengthening the company’s customer support and responsiveness.

As of November 2, 2021 the Polish company Fabryka Narzędzi FANAR S.A. (Fanar), a manufacturer of solid round tools, will become part of the offering from Seco. Fanar will enhance the Seco product offering in solid threading.
