Adaptive Tool Design

Adaptive Tool Design is a newly formed business that began operations in August of 2022 under the direction of owner Craig Caldwell.  The family run business is currently located in Meadville PA, but will be relocating to its permanent location in Cambridge Springs PA late spring of 2024.  This move will allow Adaptive to increase operations due to a larger facility size and to also distinguish ourselves as an independent business.  Adaptive Tool employees offer over 30 years of experience and are extremely knowledgeable with Hard Milling, Hard Turning, Wire EDM and Surface Grinding.  In our effort to continue the legacy of the Toolmaking trade, our part time employee will transition to full time in June 2024 and will be entering into a Toolmaker apprenticeship with Adaptive Tool Design through the Northwestern PA Chapter NTMA. We look forward to this endeavor to grow Adaptive through the knowledge of our youth.

Adaptive Tool Design specializes in design, building, and repair of injection molds, compression molds and fixturing.  We welcome those customized projects that other large businesses may not have the capacity to handle.  Through our evaluation of existing tooling, we can provide suggestions and recommendations to increase the life and efficiency of your tooling.  We pride ourselves in offering direct communication during processes, quick turnaround times and the ability to hold close tolerances.  We are a great fit for your customized projects.
