At NKO Machines®, we don't think our customers should ever have to second-guess whether a critical consumable will be available or what it will cost.

So we're pleased to share that our CEO, Milan Richtr, has negotiated and signed a long-term framework agreement that sources tungsten straight from a mining partner. Under it, NKO Machines® has locked in enough raw material to keep producing carbide cutting inserts at a fixed, preferential price for the next two years.

That long-range approach shields our production from market turbulence, keeps deliveries steady, and lets us go on offering customers strong value even when raw-material prices are climbing.

While plenty of manufacturers are wrestling with uncertainty, we're doing the opposite — investing in durable partnerships, responsible sourcing and supply-chain security, so professionals everywhere can count on premium cutting inserts whenever they need them.

Steady supply, steady pricing, dependable performance — that's the commitment behind the NKO Machines® name.
