For Best-fitting Industrial Assembly Tools in Georgia, Ask our Local Engineers

Southern Tool's Local SEs Will Walk Your Line

Since 2001 Southern Tool Specialist (STS) offers custom industrial assembly solutions for large and smaller industrial manufacturers. In Georgia we’ve got local engineers to help update your current industrial assembly applications and talk through new solutions. They’re backed up with dedicated engineering support when required for more integrated solutions too.

We work with all major industrial sectors in Georgia — and with many Tier 2 and Tier 3 assemblers. Ask around and you’ll probably find we’re working with another operations team you know.

The Only Atlas Copco Sales & Service Solution in Georgia

Today’s modern manufacturing runs on tight cycles with tool calibration and servicing part of the schedule. Our Pelham, Alabama service center speeds service and reduces backup tool counts. We’ve been known to hand-deliver replacements in a pinch. STS stands by you. Period.

Plus a Full Portfolio of Tools for any Assembly Requirement

We offer a full Atlas Copco product line, plus carefully evaluated solutions from others ensuring specialization and expertise in the products we represent. Your solution will be the best it can be, based on the highest quality tools, the most reliable and advanced systems, plus the best engineering application design.

In Georgia Lübbering‘s L.ADU drilling systems are cutting aerospace and automotive drilling cycles drastically and saving on costs.

We routinely custom CAD-design drill solutions for tight spaces found in aerospace and automotive assembly. Lübbering’s geared offset drill heads are the optimal tool with consistent torque. Know any other consulting team willing to so engage?!

Backed with Solid Assembly Engineering Expertise

STS invests heavily to build an expert team of degreed engineers plus other technical backgrounds — with diverse aptitudes and strengths. Then they are trained-up in service excellence. We take pride in our work. And it shows.

Long after the sale we will stand by you and your applications. Some may call this way of selling ‘old-fashioned.’ We call it honest selling.

Southern Tool Will Never Sell More Tool than You Need

The right-fitting tool means the right tool for now. You may not need an integrated Industry 4.0 tool. Maybe a simpler, transducerized tool to help your operators. We’ve got those and we sell a lot of them too.

We can explain the difference and the added value that can come with integration. It may make sense to consider.

Case Study: Traceability Delivers Measurable Benefits

CASE IN POINT: Cottrell Trailers in Gainesville, Georgia specializes in custom over-the-road car haulers.  They opted for:

  • the Atlas Copco Automated Wheel Multiple + PF6 Flex Controller, a highly compact integrated multi-spindle solution that reduces floor space requirements
  • with Atlas Copco’s ToolsNet8 and STRwrench software.

Why? The solution increased output and reduced rework. Importantly, the documented, traceable tightening run downs reduced their warranty claims — a big deal for them and a huge money-saver.

After installation, when we recommended new tightening programs as part of our continuous service, Cottrell could measure the improvements.

As Cottrell Trailers’ solution proves Traceability can reduce warranty claims and minimize recalls. With traceability a requirement for auto manufacturers  (IATF 16949) the Atlas Copco / STS solution is a solid choice.

If you have an immediate tool need to fill, or are simply curious about how new productivity-enhancing solutions can help your applications, give us a call. We’ll be right over.

Our Focus Is on the Solution
and
the Value of the Solution to You
