Maintenance is really important and kind of a pain. When it comes to all-important spindle maintenance, you can avoid the pain by using simple tools and devices.

These easy-to-use measuring devices can help protect capital machinery, prevent scrapped parts, and speed setups or programming.

Good measurements make setups faster, reduce recuts and identify potential spindle or holder issues before they become bigger problems. Let’s look at a few of the key areas to measure and the handy solutions available.  

Runout is one of the sneakier issues machinists and tool managers must deal with. It’s almost impossible to recognize in-process and difficult to diagnose after the fact. We identify potential sources.

If you’re looking for fast, easy return on investment, improving tool life is one of the best options a metalworking operation has.

Discover the advantages of using a modular tooling system and what makes BIG DAISHOWA modular components unique.

Unlock better machining results with the right tool holders. Learn how design, selection and maintenance impact accuracy, tool life and overall performance.

We talk a lot about some of the products we offer that handle tooling while they aren’t on the spindle—and for good reason.

Learn five key factors to consider when selecting boring tools to improve performance, reduce costs and ensure part quality.

We’ve built our name on tool holders, boring tools, cutting tools and specialized solutions for the everyday and most demanding machining operations. You may be surprised to learn we have deep expertise in lathe tooling as well. We have to. Lathes are critical to the development and production of our tools.

From a safety standpoint, limiting surface contacts and close interactions are two of the most important steps that can be taken to help prevent the spread of illness. It got us thinking about how our tooling and systems can help maintain a safer environment.

John Saunders, a machine owner known for running the popular CNC machining YouTube channel, stopped by BIG DAISHOWA to discuss presetters with our product manager.

Machining at higher speeds can save time and money, however, increasing the speed also means increasing the inherent risk in the situation. To maximize speed potential, a holistic approach that considers tool, holder, machine and operator is essential.

Safety in the shop involves careful handling of tooling. Get tips to help ensure tooling is set up properly, cared for and keeps your team safe.

Exciting improvements in automation are already on their way—higher productivity, increased safety, greater throughput and less scrap. Tool digitalization provides opportunities for production improvements, like our EWE digital fine boring tool. It displays the actual diameter of a tool, makes adjustments much simpler and faster, and reduces human error.
