Cline Tool, one of the largest Sandvik distributors and custom tool manufacturers, has announced the expansion into a third new market since the end of last year, and has hired industry veteran Tony Cornelius as regional sales manager for its Illinois territory.
“We are excited to announce our newest location in Rockford, IL,” said Cline Tool President Jim Long, adding that Cornelius has over 25 years of experience in the metal fabrication industry, and "brings a wealth of technical skills and strong connections to manufacturers in the area."
In addition to the Illinois facility, Cline Tool opened locations earlier this year in Asheville, N.C. and Houston, Texas. Each location offers manufacturers a full range of services, including custom metal cutting tools, engineering services, integrated supply/vending programs and tool reconditioning.
