May 18, 2016 ― MachiningCloud, an Industry 4.0 solution provider helping customers make better tooling decisions, is proud to announce the immediate availability of Destiny Tool, a supplier of high performance end mills for use in non-ferrous and high temperature alloys, on the MachiningCloud App.
 
Destiny Tool’s customers can now find Destiny’s product data on MachiningCloud, eliminating the need to search through printed catalogs, telephone calls and multiple websites to find optimal tooling.  By using ISO13399 and GTC, the Destiny Tool product data residing on MachiningCloud is also easily imported into any shop software supporting these standards.

ISO 13399 is an international standard for the digital representation of cutting tool data. GTC (Generic Tool Catalog) is a complement to ISO 13399 for vendor neutral classification of cutting tools and data file structures.
 ​

"Machining Cloud's ability to feed Destiny Tool's product data directly into their customer's shop software offers a tremendous benefit over paper catalogs and websites that currently offer this type of data which is manually typed into the end user's software," says Pierre-Francois Tavard, Cloud Evangelist for the Machining Cloud GmbH. "By utilizing cloud technology and industry standards - including ISO13399, STEP, GTC and MTConnect - the Machining Cloud is capable of serving up-to-date product data to virtually any shop floor software or system."

"In today's manufacturing world it's all about producing the most number of quality parts, in spec and in tolerance at the end of the work day. If you do that, your company makes money and beats the competition. Destiny Tool believes, that in order to be a top performer you have to pick out your niche and then constantly improve upon it. At Destiny Tool, we have developed unique tooling for those who are looking for the finest end mills. For many years at Destiny Tool we cut our teeth in non-ferrous and hi-temp alloys and we believe that our performance end mills are the very best available in the world for those specific material groups," says Bernie Martin and Guy Calamia from Destiny Tool.
