Some of the world tool some manufacturers have developed a wide range of recycling plan, the plan is good for environmental protection, on the one hand, on the other hand also can bring considerable economic benefits for the user.
Kenner metal cutting tool company to renew the service can be used for old tools to repair to the "new" almost, can achieve better processing performance and faster turnaround time. Tool includes three simple steps: to evaluate waste cutting tools, grinding, analysis and processing. Can be refurbished tool varieties including solid carbide drill bits, solid carbide end mill, solid carbide tap, and other various cutting tools.
Sandvik coromant tool provided by the company recycling programme called "coke full recirculation concept (CRC)", it is a kind of by all the users against enterprises provide scrap carbide blade and the overall comprehensive recycling service of carbide cutting tools.
In Australia, Sutton cutter tool resharpening services provided by the company to become "brand-new" old tools.

Another tool retrofit service tool manufacturer company, Germany walter, according to the company, the obvious effect to reduce the production cost. After the renovation of cutting tool can achieve the same processing quality as the original, but processing cost reduced by half. Compared with newly purchased knives, this kind of refurbished tool performance, while only about a third of its price.
Remanufacturing can make the product has better performance. When applied to the machine tool, for example, can easily be original use ordinary numerical control system of NC machine tool modified for use the new CNC numerical control system of machine tools. Tight budget for some companies, this kind of remanufacturing machine tools are potentially attractive. Using new type of numerical control system and electronic devices, for example, even a robot, CNC turning center for renovation and transformation of the old, remanufacturing machine can get to buy the original machine for the first time that the characteristic, thus giving its "almost entirely new" function.
In today's manufacturing industry, such as "life cycle analysis", "carbon emissions" concept of environmental protection is becoming increasingly popular. In order to evaluate a certain material recycling have any impact on the environment, people are in a wide range of all kinds of research.
