Pan American Tool Corporation was founded in 1986 to supply specialized precision metal cutting tools expressly for the aviation and aerospace industries.
From modest beginnings as a family owned and operated regional supplier of precision tools, the Company today has emerged as a global standard for product quality and value, application knowledge, and responsiveness to customer needs for a myriad of critical cutting tool applications for private, business, commercial and military aviation, as well as applications relating to America’s Space Shuttle Program.
Pan American Tool’s headquarters is located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, with satellite offices in Alabama, Arizona, Oklahoma and Texas. The Company serves its customers through direct sales and service office in the U.S., and globally in more than 166 countries directly and through Company-certified aviation-product distributors.
Allegiance to Quality, Customer
Service Garners ISO 9001 Certification
The success of Pan American Tool is due to the extraordinary spirit and commitment of its employees. Their allegiance to product quality was officially recognized in 1999 when the Company became the first U.S. aircraft cutting tool specialist to achieve ISO 9001 Certification.
The Company’s ISO 9001 program is unique and one of the strongest in its industry in that each employee accepts responsibility singularly and jointly for absolute customer satisfaction. The process begins with quality tools built to Pan America Tool’s rigorous specifications, and continues with quality certification of all vendors plus 100% inspection of all incoming parts and finished tools.
Frequent Company-wide meetings help ensure ongoing compliance with the goals of the Company’s ISO 9001 program. These meetings provide the opportunity for employees to share ideas to further strengthen quality assurance, and to discuss issues relating to customer satisfaction and associated operational issues.
Order Entry & Stocking Program
Ensures Fast, Accurate Order Fulfillment
Pan American Tool is recognized as an innovator not only for the breadth of cutting tool lines it carries, but also for its groundbreaking stocking programs that now serve as exemplars for the industry.
Stocking programs encompass a computerized tracking system that matches order entry with an inventory of over 2000 standard and specialty cutting tools totaling over five million parts, and highly skilled and experienced order fillers who strive for 100% accuracy on every order. The Company also offers customized customer-stocking programs – all geared toward Pan American Tool’s goal of shipping orders 100% complete on the same day the order is received.
