Tooling for Advanced Drilling Units

Mohawk's custom designed advanced tooling , aligned with a carefully selected "Power Tool" can provide great flexibilty and precision in the manufacturing process. To function as effectively as possible, all cutters must be carefully engineered to ensure that our customer receives a cutting tool that allows them achieve required hole size, alignment, roundness and surface finish.

Mohawk's application specific approach to tool design helps assure that you receive the correct tooling for all applications.

As many aerospace components and assemblies are too large for conventional CNC tooling, there is a clear need for ADU's that are portable, easily fixtured, accurate and powerful-without sacrificing productivity.
