West Salem Tool & Die specializes in industrial tooling, dies and fixtures. High safety design features and short lead times makes us one of the industry’s leaders in compact equipment for tube and exhaust industries.

We can manufacture many other kinds of machines as well.

Tooling

An important part of our business from the beginning, we continue to make precision industrial tooling in house.

Fixtures

West Salem Tool and Die is able to provide custom designed welding fixtures, both stationary and rollover fixtures for robotic welding and for manual welding.  We design the fixture based on your 3D part model and weld drawing.

Progressive Dies

We design and manufacture progressive die sets up to 100″ long.

Every die is tested to make sure the parts that come out are in-tolerance.  Experience has taught us how to build die sets that last.

PLANISHERS

Our tube planishing machines smooth out weld beads for smooth ID and OD finish.  Mig, Tig, or Plasma Weld – any weld seam can be flattened.  Stainless tubes are no problem.
