Machinist Tool also offers links to call Allied’s engineers or to find local Allied distributors if users need technical support. The app includes quick access to geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) definitions as well as a boring insert selector to help machine operators choose correct inserts for various boring applications.
Machinist Tool compiles a quick reference library of Allied’s holemaking and finishing resources such as technical guides and operation manuals. Accessible tech guides include an illustrated pocked reference for threading, as well as a guide with recommended cutting data for ISO materials.
The app is available for download on iPhone and Android devices and is offered in several languages.
