CNC machine tool efficiency is all about managing the components that must come together in proper alignment: the machine spindle, toolholder assembly and workspace.

Manufacturing miniature parts and features is not new. In the past, EDM and laser technologies were used to create these features. Although these technologies worked for low volume jobs, they are not practical for the high volume micro applications that are in demand today.

Shop-smart accessories clean up on the competition

Micromachining, cutting where the volume of chips produced with each tool path is very small, is not a high-speed operation in relation to chip load per tooth. Rather, it involves a high spindle speed due to cutter diameter. The part may be physically larger, but details of the part require ultra-small profiles achieved only by micromachining. In other words, micromachining is not limited in scope to only miniature parts.

Moldmakers hoping to avoid problems such as chatter, poor tool life and molds that fail quality control muster need to consider a variety of factors when selecting a long-reach toolholder.

A lot of conflicting information has circulated about balancing tools over the years. Let's clear some things up and make life a little easier for you.

BIG DAISHOWA expands jet-through hydraulic chuck line to include the BCV interface and additional inch sizes.

Why pull studs are under more pressure than ever before.

Aerospace is unique among industries in its thirst for component accuracy with ‘blemish-free’ precision. Unlike any other industry, anything that goes into the air has to be on spec, as the smallest imperfection in machining can adversely affect flight safety.

With a little knowhow and the right tools, see how you can significantly reduce cycle time by rough boring instead of performing a helical interpolation with a mill.

The new Chip Blower is designed to make removing chips and coolant from parts and machine tables fast and easy.

BIG DAISHOWA has updated its offering of Chip Blowers for added compatibility with hydraulic and milling chucks.

BIG DAISHOWA has been adding digital boring head options since 2010, beginning with the Series 112 for small diameter finish boring.

BIG DAISHOWA introduces a new small-diameter indexable rough boring solution for a range not previously available.

The hydraulic chucks for Swiss lathes offering has expanded to include inch-size standard chucks, as well as new F Type and R Type chucks.
