PCM (PCM Willen SA) is situated in the town of Villeneuve, Switzerland near the French border. Villeneuve is a region at the foot of the Alps where industrial fields such as watches and other precision machinery are well developed. This time, we will introduce the "Live Tool" of PCM, which is most suitable for the compound processing of lathes.

PCM is developing 60 models of new products (precision tools) every year, disciplined by the demanding accuracy requirements of the precision industries, mainly watch manufacturing such as Rolex and Patek Philippe. Because we indirectly handled PCM tools in Japan, upon establishing the Thai corporation, we are able to handle their products as a Thai distributor of PCM.

PCM "Live Tool" realizes work efficiency and labor savings sought after in Thai market

In recent years, the sales of the PCM Live Tool has increased among our handling. The Live Tool is a tool that realizes compound processing by mounting it on a CNC lathe. Because labor costs used to be cheap in Thailand, production was basically a division of labor. However, the number of Thai workers is declining, while salaries are rising. Presently Thailand is in a transitional period from the conventional division of labor to shortening the process and reducing labor. Therefore, there is a growing need to do all-in-one as much as possible in the manufacturing industry. Conventional lathe processing used multiple machines. It takes a lot of time to set up machines and change tools. But with PCM Live Tools, those times can easily be reduced.
