The Design Team

We currently have (3) design engineers using Autodesk Inventor, and Solidworks.  Our designers understand not only how to design a great tool, but the steps it takes to build and run that tool in production.  This knowledge is invaluable when the design becomes a reality. 

The Office Staff

These wonderful ladies are usually the first contact people will have with K-K Tool & Design. They are the voices you here when you call, and they are the first smiling faces you see when you walk in the door.  They perform a myriad of secretarial duties and manage to make it look effortless.  

The Toolmakers

These are the guys that make the designs a reality. And they are good at what they do. With countless years of experience they know all aspects of the build, assembly, and tryout process.
